Significant Gains in Rheumatoid Arthritis Quality Measures Among RISE Registry Practices.
Article in Arthritis care & research, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
objectiveUsing the American College of Rheumatology Rheumatology Informatics System for Effectiveness (RISE) registry, our objective was to examine performance on rheumatoid arthritis (RA) quality measures and to assess the association between practice characteristics and changes in performance over time among participating practices.
methodsWe analyzed data from practices enrolled in RISE between January 1, 2015 and December 31, 2017. Eight quality measures in the areas of RA disease management, cardiovascular risk reduction, and patient safety were examined. Variability in performance was evaluated at the practice level. Multivariate linear models were used to predict change in measure performance by year and to determine the effect of practice characteristics on change in performance over time.
resultsData from 59,986 patients from 54 practices were examined. The mean ± SD age was 62 ± 14 years, 77% were female, 69% were Caucasian, and most patients were seen in a single-specialty group practice (46%). The average performance on measures related to RA treatments was consistently high (>90%) across the study period. Measures related to RA functional status and disease activity assessment had the greatest improvements over time (8.4% and 13.0% increase per year, respectively; P < 0.001). Single-specialty group practices had the fastest rates of improvement over time across all measures.
conclusionAmong practices participating in RISE between 2015 and 2017, performance on most RA quality measures improved. Single-specialty group practices saw the fastest rates of improvement over time. Identification of workflow patterns leading to dramatic improvements in quality of care will help guide process redesign to address gaps in priority areas, such as tuberculosis screening and blood pressure control.
