Health-related quality of life and utility: comparison of ankylosing spondylitis, rheumatoid arthritis, and systemic lupus erythematosus patients in Taiwan.

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 purpose of this study was to evaluate the health-related quality of life among patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS), rheumatoid arthritis (RA), or systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). This prospective, cross-sectional survey was conducted from September 1, 2008 to August 31, 2009. Patients answered questions with regard to demographics and disease characteristics and also completed generic (SF-36) and preference-based utility (SF-6D and EQ-5D) instruments. Multivariate analysis assessed the relationship of RA and SLE to AS with respect to the outcomes of the different health-related quality of life instruments. In general, baseline and disease characteristics differed across the three disease groups. Compared to SLE patients, RA patients scored worse on the higher-order summary scores of physical (PCS) and mental components (MCS) of SF-36 (P ≤ 0.002) and total SF-36 (P ≤ 0.005). RA also had worse PCS than AS (P ≤ 0.001). SLE patients scored higher on the utility score of SF-6D compared with RA patients and higher than both AS and RA patients for the utility score of EQ-5D. Multivariate analysis found that compared with AS patients, RA had significantly lower SF-36 total score and PCS, and SLE patients had greater PCS and a greater EQ-5D utility score. Multivariate analysis found no difference across the patient groups with respect to MCS or SF-6D utility score. These findings suggest that among the three rheumatic diseases studied, RA patients have the worse health-related quality of life, and AS patients have similar or poorer health-related quality of life as SLE patient.
