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

Skin pain is a common but poorly understood symptom of psoriasis, affecting only a subset of patients. Using imiquimod and interleukin-17A-induced psoriasiform mouse models that exhibited pain-like behaviors, we found that nerve growth factor (NGF) levels were elevated in lesional skin, activating TrkA signaling in dorsal root ganglion neurons and promoting Schwann-cell hypertrophy. Normally, Schwann cells (SCs) limit NGF signaling in cutaneous peripheral nerves through the p75NTR receptor. However, inflammation driven by interleukin-17A increased non-muscle myosin II activity and elevated NGF levels, leading to the internalization and degradation of p75NTR. The resulting depletion of p75NTR caused local NGF accumulation, excessive TrkA activation, and heightened pain sensitivity. These findings reveal that psoriatic inflammation converts SCs from protective buffers into drivers of pain, offering a mechanistic explanation for why only some patients experience cutaneous pain in psoriasis.
