Younger age of onset and uveitis associated with HLA-B27 and delayed diagnosis in Thai patients with axial spondyloarthritis.
Article in Scientific reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
To identify characteristics associated with HLA-B27, and to identify factors associated with delayed diagnosis in Thai patients with axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA). This cross-sectional study included Thai patients were diagnosed with axSpA by a rheumatologist at Siriraj Hospital. Clinical data were collected. Regression analyses were employed to identify factors associated with study outcomes. Of total 177 patients, 127 (72%) were positive HLA-B27. Uveitis [Odds ratio (OR) 4.0], age at onset of the first musculoskeletal symptom of ≤ 28 years [OR 3.5], female [OR 0.4], and psoriasis [OR 0.4] were significantly associated with HLA-B27 in multiple regression analysis. Those with positive HLA-B27 had less spinal flexibility. Elevated C-reactive protein (p = 0.012) was associated with shorter delay in diagnosis, while uveitis (p < 0.001) and younger age at onset of the first symptom (p = 0.002) were associated with longer delay in diagnosis in multiple regression analysis. Younger age at onset of the first musculoskeletal symptom and uveitis were associated with HLA-B27 and delayed diagnosis in axSpA patients. Young people with musculoskeletal symptom and uveitis should be referred to a rheumatologist to rule out or make a timely diagnosis of axSpA.
