Daily functioning and health status in patients with hand osteoarthritis: Fewer differences between women and men than expected.
Article in Wiener klinische Wochenschrift, 2011. 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
objectiveTo explore and describe potential differences between women and men in functioning, health status and socio-economic variables in hand OA.
methodsUnselected patients of an Austrian outpatient clinic meeting the ACR criteria for hand OA were consecutively included and assessed once. Descriptive statistics and subgroup analyses were performed for differences between women and men. By regression analysis, we explored whether the variables sex, practice of sports, manual activities, aesthetic changes and functioning in daily life predict the levels of pain and vitality.
results223 (88.1%) women and 30 (11.9%) men were included in the study. Significant differences between women and men were found in involvement in housework, aesthetic changes and own net income. Sex did not contribute significantly to any of the regression models, while e.g. involvement in sports was a strong individual contributor to self-reported vitality - irrespective of sex. Total X-ray scores of both hands as well as the involvement of CMCI joints did not show significant differences.
conclusionOur study showed significant differences between women and men with hand OA in socio-economic variables and aesthetic changes. In contrast to our expectations, no other differences between women and men were found in functioning and health status.
