Hidradenitis Suppurativa from Preconception to Lactation: Clinical Treatment Decision-Making Review.
Review in Dermatology and therapy, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Hidradenitis suppurativa is a chronic, inflammatory skin disease that predominantly affects women of reproductive age and may require continuous therapeutic control during pregnancy and lactation. This review summarizes current evidence on the safety and practical use of topical, systemic, biologic, metabolic, and procedural therapies for HS throughout the preconception, gestational, peripartum, and breastfeeding periods. Topical clindamycin, benzoyl peroxide, chlorhexidine, and selected beta-lactam antibiotics appear to represent preferred options for mild disease or acute flares, whereas tetracyclines, retinoids, spironolactone, apremilast, Janus kinase inhibitors, and most glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists require avoidance or discontinuation because of fetal or neonatal safety concerns. Among biologics, tumor necrosis factor-α inhibitors remain the best-characterized agents, with certolizumab pegol offering minimal placental transfer and adalimumab or infliximab requiring individualized decisions regarding continuation and timing of discontinuation. Evidence for newer agents, including secukinumab and bimekizumab, is evolving but remains more limited. The review also highlights the importance of preconception counseling, medication transition, multidisciplinary delivery planning, postpartum flare prevention, breastfeeding-compatible therapy, and individualized procedural management. The management considerations presented herein are intended to support individualized clinical decision-making and should not be interpreted as formal guideline recommendations.Graphical abstract available for this article.
