Managing Psoriatic Arthritis With a Whole Food Plant-Based Diet: A Case Study.
Article in American journal of lifestyle medicine. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
A 40-year-old female teacher presented to the rheumatology clinic in 2003 with nonspecific back, knees, and right ankle pain. She was subsequently diagnosed with psoriatic arthritis and was taking methotrexate to control her disease. Over the years, her symptoms were mostly under control. However, in 2018, after adopting a whole food plant-based diet free of added salt, oil, and sugar, she was able to stop taking methotrexate. She was discharged from the rheumatology clinic and has remained symptom-free since. The available literature on managing psoriatic arthritis with diet shows that less than 2% of patients with psoriatic arthritis are able to discontinue medication as a result of disease remission. This case report adds to support and encourages further research in the field of managing inflammatory polyarthropathies with diet and lifestyle.
