Multimorbidity and rheumatic conditions-enhancing the concept of comorbidity.
Review in Nature reviews. Rheumatology, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 68 papers, 3 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
The concept of multimorbidity is still poorly understood and not well integrated into medical care and research. For clinicians involved in rheumatology care for an ageing patient population who have multiple diseases, multimorbidity is the rule not the exception. The interaction of different diseases and the impact they have on important clinical outcomes, such as physical function, quality of life and mortality, should all be considered by the rheumatologist. Treatment decisions must be adapted for the patient with multimorbidity to best serve the individual and society. This Perspectives article describes the concept of multimorbidity, how it differs from comorbidity, and outlines why an increased understanding of multimorbiditiy will enhance our overall clinical practice and research focus.
