Ultrasound in psoriatic arthritis. Can it facilitate a best routine practice in the diagnosis and management of psoriatic arthritis?
Review in Clinical rheumatology, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Important advances from both therapeutic and clinical assessment have recently been reported in psoriatic arthritis (PsA). Moreover, the constant challenge to provide a more comprehensive assessment of this heterogeneous disease results in a variety of clinical instruments that help the clinician for a global evaluation of both disease activity and responsiveness. The current European League Against Rheumatism (EULAR) recommendations on the use of imaging suggest the use of ultrasound (US) in chronic arthritis to increase the diagnostic accuracy and improvement of its management as compared to clinical examination alone. Although US findings are not firmly established in daily clinical practice, it demonstrated several positive aspects such as good sensitivity and specificity, acceptable reliability, and adequate sensitivity to change, especially in the peripheral PsA. Additionally, recent works introduced the role of US in the assessment of skin and nails opening interesting area of research. The aim of this paper is to describe the potential role of US in the assessment of PsA and to discuss the current evidence supporting its application in daily clinical practice.
