The Prevalence of Sjögren's Syndrome in Rheumatoid Arthritis Patients and Their Clinical Features.
Article in Journal of Korean medical science, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 16 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
backgroundTo estimate the prevalence of Sjögren's syndrome (SS) in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and to compare the clinical features of RA patients with and without SS.
methodsWe conducted a retrospective study of RA patients who visited a rheumatology clinic in a tertiary referral hospital in Korea between May 20 and July 22, 2016. All patients fulfilled the classification criteria for RA, and the diagnosis of SS was made clinically by rheumatologists and according to the 2002 American-European Consensus Group (AECG), 2012 American College of Rheumatology (ACR), and 2016 ACR/European League Against Rheumatism (EULAR) classification criteria. The prevalence was estimated as the number of SS patients within the total number of RA patients. The disease activity and treatment pattern of RA were compared between patients with and without SS.
resultsAmong 827 RA patients, 72 patients (8.7%) were diagnosed with SS by a rheumatologist, though only 60 patients (7.3%) satisfied the 2002 AECG classification criteria for SS. Fifty-two patients (6.3%) and 56 patients (6.8%) fulfilled the 2012 ACR and 2016 ACR/EULAR classification criteria, respectively. The prevalence of SS in RA patients was 10.5%, 17.0%, and 67.6% in rheumatoid factor, antinuclear antibody (≥ 1:80), and anti-Ro antibody positive patients, respectively.
conclusionThe prevalence of SS among RA patients was 8.7% according to rheumatologists' diagnosis. The presence of SS did not affect the treatment patterns of RA patients. However, the autoantibody profiles and demographics of RA patients with SS differed from those of patients without SS.
