Promising Treatment Options for Axial Spondyloarthritis: An Overview of Experimental Pharmacological Agents.
Review in Journal of experimental pharmacology, 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
Axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) is a chronic inflammatory condition that predominantly affects the axial skeleton. All patients receive conservative management measures which include physiotherapy, patient education and use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Those with significant active disease will require escalation of their treatment with the use of biologics. Currently, there are five approved TNF inhibitors and two approved IL-17 inhibitors for use in axSpA. However, despite this up to 40% of patients do not respond or are intolerant to current available treatment. This leaves a significant number of patients with uncontrolled disease and unmet need for additional therapies. Though many drug classes have been trialed for axSpA they show poor efficacy; however, over the last few years there are three which demonstrate much greater promise as novel therapies for axSpA, these include dual neutralization of IL-17A and IL-17F, Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors, and granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) inhibitors. This article reviews the evidence for these novel emerging therapeutic options for axSpA.
