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

backgroundAssociations between psoriasis and allergic diseases (asthma, rhinitis, and eczema) in children have been reported in a limited number of studies, and the association between psoriasis and multimorbidity (co-occurrence) of allergic diseases remains unclear. Hence, this study aimed to assess the association between psoriasis and the co-occurrence of asthma, rhinitis, and eczema in adolescents.

methodsThis school-based cross-sectional study enrolled adolescents (n = 3,864) aged 11-14 years. Parents completed a questionnaire on doctor-diagnosed psoriasis as well as symptoms and clinical history of asthma, rhinitis, and eczema. Eight nonoverlapping groups comprising single and co-occurring current (past 12 months) asthma, rhinitis, and eczema were identified. A multinomial logistic regression model was used to estimate the adjusted odds ratios (aOR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI).

resultsIn the analytical sample (n = 3,710; 1,641 male and 2,069 female participants), 3.5% reported doctor-diagnosed psoriasis, and 15.7%, 15.0%, and 10.3% had current asthma, rhinitis, and eczema symptoms, respectively. Doctor-diagnosed psoriasis was associated with "asthma only" (aOR = 2.11, 95% CI: 1.15-3.89), "eczema only" (6.65, 4.11-10.74), "asthma + eczema" (5.25, 2.36-11.65), "rhinitis + eczema" (3.60, 1.07-12.15), and "asthma + rhinitis + eczema" (7.38, 2.93-18.58). Doctor-diagnosed psoriasis was not statistically significantly associated with "rhinitis only" (1.42, 0.71--2.84) and "asthma + rhinitis" (1.78, 0.69-4.56).

conclusionOur findings indicate that psoriasis is associated with the co-occurrence of allergic diseases among adolescents. However, further studies are required to investigate which biological mechanisms may be shared between psoriasis and allergic diseases.
