Hospitalization Increases the Risk of Acute Arthritic Flares in Gout: A Population-based Study over 2 Decades.
Article in The Journal of rheumatology, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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 assess in-hospital gout flares in patients with gout.
methodsHospitalizations were evaluated for gout flares in a cohort of Olmsted County, Minnesota, residents with incident gout in 1989-1992 or 2009-2010.
resultsThere were 429 patients followed up to 5 years. Of these, 169 patients experienced 454 hospitalizations. Hospitalization rates increased without reaching statistical significance from 1989-1992 to 2009-2010 [rate ratio (RR) 1.19, 95% CI 0.98-1.45]. The gout flare rate increased significantly during hospitalization (RR 10.2, 95% CI 6.8-14.5). In-hospital gout flare increased the average hospital stay by 1.8 days (p < 0.001).
conclusionHospitalization increased the risk of gout flares 10-fold. In-hospital gout flares were associated with longer hospitalization.
