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

BACKGROUND AND

objectivesGout shows an increasing incidence and has become a major health problem in the Western world. Despite effective treatment options, neither diagnosis nor therapeutic efforts can be regarded sufficient to date. It was of interest to investigate current handling of gout among Austrian rheumatologists. MATERIAL AND

methodsIn 2012, a survey of Austrian rheumatologists concerning diagnosis and management of hyperuricemia and gout was performed. With the consent of the Austrian Society of Rheumatology, 574 society members (343 via electronic mail, 23 via mail) were sent a questionnaire consisting of 17 questions. This is the first survey assessing the management of gout among Austrian rheumatologists.

resultsThe overall response rate was 22.1 %. Of all the contacted members (email and mail), 19.9 % answered the questionnaire electronically and only 5.6 % by mail. The adherence to the EULAR recommendations for gout ranged between 69 and 95 % (median 84 %).

conclusionAmong Austrian rheumatologists, the knowledge about gout, its diagnostic and imaging procedures, management and therapeutic goals is good and mainly in line with current international recommendations. To improve the management of patients with gout and hyperuricemia, a more frequent referral to rheumatologists could be beneficial.
