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

Psoriasis vulgaris (PV), a chronic immune-mediated inflammatory dermatosis, is associated with a significant burden of systemic comorbidities. Traditional comorbidity research methods struggle to reveal its complex interconnectedness. Based on large-scale retrospective cohort data, we constructed a PV comorbidity network using the Ising model from statistical physics. Weighted network centrality analysis was used to identify core and hub nodes and elucidate shared molecular mechanisms at the multiomics level (nontargeted proteomics and lipid peroxidation metabolomics). Finally, the impact of IL-17A inhibition (IL-17Ai) on PV and atherosclerosis (assessed by carotid Doppler color ultrasound) was evaluated using a prospective intervention study. The Ising model identified atherosclerosis- coronary heart disease (CHD) as the core comorbidity (degree centrality >10), with pulmonary nodules, hypertension, and fatty liver serving as key hub nodes (betweenness centrality >60). Multiomics analysis revealed a core molecular mechanism in PV, involving immune inflammation, oxidative stress, lipid metabolism disorder, and coagulation abnormalities, where the oxidative stress molecule GPX3 acts as a critical hub. Following IL-17Ai intervention, both skin lesions and early atherosclerosis markers significantly improved, accompanied by downregulation of the proinflammatory peripheral blood factor S100A9 and upregulation of anti-inflammatory lipid peroxidation metabolites (e.g., 17(R)-RVD1). This study systematically revealed the modular hierarchical structure of PV comorbidities at the network topology and molecular mechanism levels, confirming the central role of the IL-17 signaling pathway in driving the comorbidity network. This conclusion was further clinically validated by IL-17Ai intervention outcomes. This research provides theoretical and clinical evidence for early identification, prioritized management, and "one drug, multiple targets" therapeutic strategies for treating PV comorbidities.
