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

Glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RA) are commonly used as treatment for type 2 diabetes mellitus and obesity. GLP-1RA have been found to be valuable therapeutic approaches not only for glucose control, but also for weight loss and cardiovascular risk reduction. It has also been established that GLP-1RA have immunological and anti-inflammatory effects. The aim of this article was to comprehensively review the literature and to collect, analyse and quantitatively resynthesize evidence on the possible effects of GLP-1RA on inflammatory skin diseases. Through body weight reduction and subsequent systemic inflammation reduction, but mainly through their direct interaction with signalling pathways of inflammation and immune cells, GLP-1RA can improve psoriasis and hidradenitis suppurativa (HS). Clinical data of the positive effects of GLP-1RA in patients with psoriasis and HS are presented. Moreover, the immune cells and inflammatory pathways affected by GLP-1RA are discussed.
