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

Structural changes of bone and cartilage are the hallmarks of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and psoriatic arthritis (PsA). Radiography can help in making diagnosis and in differentiating PsA and RA from other articular diseases. Radiography is still considered the preferred imaging method to assess disease progression, reflecting cumulative damage over time. The presence of bone erosions in RA is as an indicator of irreversible articular damage. Radiographic features of PsA are characteristic and differ from those observed in RA, especially in the distribution of affected joints and in the presence of destructive changes and bone proliferation at the same time. Semiquantitative scoring methods are designed to measure the degree of radiographically detectable joint damage and of changes over time. Several radiographic scoring methods that had been developed originally for RA have been adopted for the use in PsA. This review discusses the use of conventional radiography for diagnosing and detecting early structural changes in RA and PsA and providing a historical overview of commonly used scoring methods.
