Prevalence of affective disorders and dementia in inflammatory polyarthropathies.
Article in European archives of psychiatry and clinical neuroscience, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Comorbid disorders are common in psychiatric diseases and understanding the risk of secondary diseases can aid successful clinical treatment. The objective of this study was to compare the frequency of comorbid dementia, affective disorders, and inflammatory polyarthropathies. Healthcare data obtained via the German Hospital Fees Act from two independent databases with more than 7.4 million cases were analyzed to compare the prevalence of comorbid disorders. Comorbid inflammatory polyarthropathy was observed in 2.27% of patients diagnosed with affective disorders and 1.35% of patients with dementia (p < 0.001). Among patients with a primary diagnosis of inflammatory polyarthropathy, 1.27% of patients were diagnosed with dementia, whereas 4.55% of age-matched patients without inflammatory polyarthropathies had comorbid dementia (p < 0.001). The opposite effect was demonstrated for affective disorders, as 5.77% of patients with a primary diagnosis of inflammatory polyarthropathy also had comorbid affective disorders, while 4.87% of age-matched patients without inflammatory polyarthropathy had an accompanying affective disease (p < 0.001). These findings show an association between the occurrence of inflammatory polyarthropathies, dementia, and affective disorders. This correlation might improve diagnosis and treatment for patients with comorbidities. Moreover, further exploration of the molecular pathophysiology underlying these relationships could be relevant for the development of novel treatment options.
