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.

Abstract

Purpose: Psoriasis extends beyond skin manifestations and significantly impacts patients' psychological health, social interactions, and daily functioning. The main objective was to assess the 2-year effect of tildrakizumab, an interleukin-23p19 inhibitor, on the skin, the psychological well-being and the health-related quality of life (HRQoL) of people with psoriatic disease in real-world. Patients and Methods: The POSITIVE study is a 24-month, prospective observational multinational study enrolling adults with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis treated with tildrakizumab according to clinical practice. Outcome measurements included the 5-item WHO Well-being Index (WHO-5), Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) and Dermatology Life Quality Index-Relevant (DLQI-R). Results: 785 patients were included. The mean (95% CI) WHO-5 score increased from 53.7 (52.2, 55.3) at baseline to 63.2 (61.5, 64.8) at W16 and continued improving over time: 65.9 (64.0, 67.9) at W52 and 70.4 (68.1, 72.7) at W104. The mean (95% CI) PASI decreased from 12.9 (12.3, 13.5) at baseline to 2.4 (2.2, 2.7) at W16 and was maintained until W104 [1.3 (1.1, 1.5)]. At W104, 87.9/79.0/65.1% of patients maintained PASI ≤3/≤2/≤1. Drug survival due to lack of effectiveness or adverse events (AE) was 87.8% and 96.3% after 2 years. The mean (95% CI) DLQI-R score decreased from 12.0 (11.4, 12.6) at baseline to 3.1 (2.6, 3.6) W52 and 2.1 (1.7, 2.5) at W104. At the final analysis, 11.1% of patients had ≥1 related AE. Conclusion: Treatment with tildrakizumab delivered sustained and holistic long-term health for moderate to severe psoriasis over 2 years by consistently improving patients' psychological well-being, life and clinical outcomes with a favourable safety profile.
