Clinical Efficacy and Safety of Baricitinib in Patients With Alopecia Areata in Korea.
Article in Annals of dermatology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundBaricitinib is an oral Janus kinase 1 and 2 inhibitor that has shown significant efficacy in phase 3 trials for alopecia areata (AA). However, real-world data on its use for AA remain limited.
objectiveThis study evaluated the efficacy and safety of baricitinib in Korean patients with AA.
methodsIn this retrospective multicenter study, 117 patients with AA received oral baricitinib 4 mg daily for at least 36 weeks. Patient demographics, Severity of Alopecia Tool (SALT) scores, and adverse events were assessed.
resultsSALT scores significantly decreased from baseline at all time points (
conclusionBaricitinib was well tolerated and resulted in clinical improvement among patients with AA in a real-world clinical setting. Baricitinib is a potential treatment option for patients with treatment-resistant AA.
