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: Psoriasis increases atherosclerosis risk due to inflammation. To date, subclinical atherosclerosis (SA) in psoriasis has only been studied in individual vascular territories by imaging. Objective: To conduct a comprehensive evaluation of multiterritorial SA prevalence in psoriasis by imaging and establish its relationships with cardiovascular (CV) risk scores. Methods: A total of 120 patients with moderate-to-severe psoriasis without CV disease from the Early Detection of Subclinical Atherosclerosis in Psoriasis (EDSAP) cohort underwent vascular ultrasound of carotid/femoral arteries and noncontrast/contrast-coronary computed tomography angiography. SA was defined by the presence of any plaque or a coronary artery calcium score ≥1. Results: The median age was 48.04 (8.25) years, 73% were male, and 77% of participants had SA. Femoral arteries were most affected (57.1%), followed by the coronaries (51.3%) and carotid arteries (49.6%). Femoral plaques exhibited the strongest associations with coronary parameters. CV risk scores underestimated SA, as at least 60% low-risk and 90% moderate-risk patients had SA. Limitations: The main limitation is the small sample size. Conclusions: This study provides the first multiterritorial assessment of SA in psoriasis, revealing a high prevalence of early disease. Femoral arteries were most affected, correlating with coronary atherosclerosis. The high SA detection within low-/intermediate-risk individuals suggests recalibrating CV scores for establishing effective preventive measures.
