Review of Promising Off-Label Use of Deucravacitinib.
Review in International journal of molecular sciences, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Tyrosine kinase 2 (TYK2) mediates the signaling pathways of proinflammatory cytokines such as interleukin (IL)-12, IL-23, and type I interferons (IFNs) and plays a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of psoriasis and various other immune-mediated diseases. Deucravacitinib, a selective oral TYK2 inhibitor, has been approved for the treatment of psoriasis and demonstrated high efficacy and a favorable safety profile. This review summarizes the potential for expanding deucravacitinib indications based on case reports, clinical trials, and preclinical studies. Diseases in which TYK2 pathway has been demonstrated to be involved and for which clinical benefit of deucravacitinib has been reported include discoid lupus erythematosus, systemic lupus erythematosus, alopecia areata, lichen planus, palmoplantar pustulosis, psoriatic arthritis, systemic sclerosis, interstitial pneumonia, inflammatory bowel disease, and chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis. Furthermore, emerging research suggests potential therapeutic applications in neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease, and malignancies such as type 1 diabetes, vascular calcification in chronic kidney disease, T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia, and multiple sclerosis. Deucravacitinib may exert therapeutic effects by broadly suppressing cytokine signaling in a diverse range of inflammatory disorders. Ongoing clinical trials and mechanistic studies are required to clarify the efficacy and support its future indications.
