1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

BACKGROUND AND

objectivesAtopic dermatitis (AD) and psoriasis (Pso) are frequently associated with psychological distress. This study evaluated the prevalence and correlates of shame-related disorders (SRD), namely body dysmorphic disorder (BDD) and social anxiety disorder (SAD), in patients with AD and Pso. PATIENTS AND

methodsA monocentric, cross-sectional study was conducted in adult patients from 07/2023 to 03/2024. A trained clinical psychologist assessed subjects for BDD and SAD. Additionally, subjects completed the DLQI. Objective severity of their disease was physician-rated using the EASI or PASI.

resultsOne hundred and fifty-one patients were included, n = 55 (36.4%) with AD and n = 96 (63.6%) with Pso. Among all study participants, the point and lifetime prevalence of SRD was 17.2% and 31.8%, respectively. Point and lifetime prevalence for BDD was 10.6% and 26.5%, and for SAD 12.6% and 17.2%. There were no differences in the point or lifetime prevalence of BDD or SAD between patients with AD or Pso. SRD were associated with younger age and female sex. DLQI was significantly reduced in those suffering from SRD.

conclusionsOur results indicate that SRD are prevalent in AD and Pso and should therefore be further investigated for their use in routine clinical practice.
