Assessing Targeted Proteomics in Inflammatory Skin Diseases with the Tape-stripping Method.
Article in Acta dermato-venereologica, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
This cross-sectional study aimed to determine the detectability of a panel of 92 inflammatory biomarkers in tape strips from the skin of patients with inflammatory skin diseases, and whether this depended on the number of tape strips taken. Furthermore, the biomarker levels in the patients were compared with those in healthy controls. Eight consecutive uniform tape strips (each 3.8 cm²) were obtained from 2 adjacent skin sites from 8 atopic dermatitis, contact dermatitis, and psoriasis patients, respectively, and 5 controls. Three separate analyses were carried out using the Olink® Target Inflammation panel: (i) all 8 tape strips (1-8) from 1 skin site and from the other skin site, (ii) the first 4 tape strips (1-4), and (iii) the next 4 tape strips (5-8). Biomarkers were above the detection limit for 65.7% of atopic dermatitis, 70.2% of psoriasis, and 45.1% of contact dermatitis samples. There were no significant differences in biomarker levels between the use of 4 or 8 tape strips, or between the first and last 4 tape strips. In general, atopic dermatitis and psoriasis patients were distinguishable from controls, whereas contact dermatitis patients were not. Based on the overall data quality, analysing protein signatures in tape strips with the targeted inflammatory panel is feasible.
