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

objectiveThe aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of JAK inhibitors in patients with moderate to severe atopic dermatitis by performing a systematic review and meta-analysis using data from studies in real-world settings.

designSystematic review and meta-analysis. Pooled estimates for effectiveness and safety were assessed using the Freeman-Tukey Double ArcSine method. Statistical heterogeneity was assessed using I DATA SOURCE: Relevant studies were searched in March 2025 using four databases: PubMed, Embase, Scopus, and Web of Science. ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA: Studies evaluating the effectiveness or safety of systemic JAK inhibitors among patients with moderate to severe atopic dermatitis in a real-world setting were included.

resultsA total of 50 studies were included in this review. Regarding their effectiveness, the pooled estimates with a 95% CI of Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI)-75 were 44% (34%-55%), 45% (28%-62%), 59% (51%-66%), 73% (64%-81%), 70% (57%-81%), and 86% (72%-96%) at 4, 8, 12, 16, 24, and 52 weeks. For safety, the most common adverse events were acne (16%), followed by increased creatine phosphokinase levels (13%) and increased lipids (12%).

conclusionOur meta-analysis of JAK inhibitors in patients with atopic dermatitis demonstrated that the overall outcomes from real-world settings are comparable to those from clinical trials. SYSTEMATIC REVIEW REGISTRATION: Protocol Registration: PROSPERO CRD42024569258.
