Subjective sleep disturbances at the time of diagnosis in patients with polymyalgia rheumatica and in patients with seronegative elderly-onset rheumatoid arthritis. A pilot study.
Article in Reumatologia, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
objectivesTo investigate subjective sleep disturbances in patients with recent-onset polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR) and in patients with recent-onset seronegative elderly-onset rheumatoid arthritis (SEORA). MATERIAL AND
methodsThe study involved patients consecutively referred to two outpatient clinics from January to June 2018, with a diagnosis of PMR according to 2012 European League Against Rheumatism and American College of Rheumatology provisional criteria, and patients with a diagnosis of SEORA according to 1987 American Rheumatism Association criteria + age + absence of rheumatoid factor and anti-citrullinated peptide antibodies. All patients were naive to glucocorticoid (GC) therapy. After informed consent, we asked the patients to fill out a questionnaire including the Medical Outcomes Study - Sleep Scale (MOS-SS), pain Visual Analogic Scale (VAS), Cumulative Illness Rating Scale (CIRS), Neuropsychiatric Inventory (NPI), and how many minutes their morning stiffness (MS) lasted, at baseline and after 1 (T1) and 12 (T2) months. Differences between groups were calculated with the t-test; all
resultsThe MOS-SS scores and MS duration were the only variables to show at T0 a significant difference between the two groups. In particular, MOS-SS scores were 47.6 ±8.4 (PMR) and 28.26 ±12.4 (SEORA), with
conclusionsThe study suggests that the assessment of subjective sleep disturbances can be useful in the differential diagnosis between recent-onset PMR and SEORA.
