Efficacy of tight control strategy in the treatment of adult-onset Still disease.
Article in Clinical rheumatology, 2021. 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
backgroundAdult-onset Still's disease (AOSD) characterized by a high spiking fever, skin rash, arthritis, and leukocytosis. The aim of the present study was considering the long-term outcomes of patients with AOSD who were treated with tight control strategy with disease modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs).
methodsFifty-six patients with AOSD treated with tight control strategy were included. Four levels of remission were defined. Remission on-treatment was defined as the clinical remission, patient global assessment (PGA) ≤ 1, and prednisolone dose ≤ 5 mg/day for at least 6 months. Remission off-treatment was defined as the clinical remission and PGA ≤ 1 for at least 6 months as well as discontinuation of prednisolone, DMARDs, and biologics. Sustained remission on-treatment was defined as the clinical remission, PGA ≤ 1, and prednisolone dose ≤ 5 mg/day for ≥ 5 years. Sustained remission off-treatment was defined as the clinical remission and PGA ≤ 1 for ≥ 5 years as well as discontinuation of prednisolone, DMARDs, and biologics.
resultsThroughout a median follow-up of 47 months, remission on-treatment and off-treatment were obtained in 94.6% and 44.6% of patients, respectively. Sustained remission on-treatment and off-treatment were obtained in 79.2 and 8.3% of patients, respectively. Glucocorticoids (GCs) and DMARDs were discontinued in 66.1% and 48.2% of the patients, respectively. Apart from the older age of the patients in the on-GCs group, no significant differences were observed between the groups.
conclusionOur study showed that using DMARDs with tight control strategy at the presentation of AOSD may control disease activity successfully. Key Points • Using DMARDs with tight control strategy at the presentation of adult-onset Still's disease may control disease activity successfully.
