Topical Therapy in Psoriasis: Clinical Benefits, Advances in Novel Drug Delivery Strategies, and Gene Therapy Regimen.
Review in Pharmaceutics, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory disease with a complex pathogenesis, influenced by various factors involving environment, genes, and immunity. The main symptoms of psoriasis include erythema, scales, itching, etc. At present, therapeutic drugs for psoriasis are continually evolving towards enhancing treatment efficacy and reducing side effects. Firstly, the pathogenesis and characteristics of psoriasis were summarized. Then, the types and benefits of topical therapy were introduced, such as the aspects of avoiding systemic toxic effects, first pass effect, and gastrointestinal reactions with accelerating the onset time of the drugs and improving its efficacy, and were compared to systemic drugs. In the case of methotrexate, cyclosporin A, Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors, and phosphodiesterase-4 (PDE-4) inhibitors, this review had a further discussion on the improvement and translation of these molecules from systemic therapy to topical therapy in clinical practice. To further augment the limitation of skin permeability, nanotechnology and novel topical drug delivery system including nanomedicines, hydrogels, ionic liquids, and microneedles were elaborated for psoriasis management. Also, exploration of topical targeting pathogenic genes through small interfering RNA (siRNA) using nanoparticles and ionic liquids (ILs) is of great significance for long-term treatment in psoriasis. Taken together, the development of numerous topical delivery platforms is expected to achieve enhanced penetration, and precise and efficient delivery of small molecule and RNA interference (RNAi) therapeutics in psoriasis with clinical translation prospects.
