Psoriatic Arthritis With Dactylitis: A Case Report and Concise Review of Treatment Options.
Article in Cureus, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Dactylitis is characterized by generalized swelling of a finger or toe. Though it is commonly seen, the literature on psoriatic dactylitis is scant, with the majority consisting of solitary case reports. The literature on the treatment of dactylitis is considerably more limited. Dactylitis usually responds to non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) or traditional disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs). Numerous randomized studies have lately shown the effectiveness of different biological agents in the treatment and maintenance of psoriatic arthritis (PsA) and associated dactylitis. In primary care practice, a patient may present with dactylitis without a history of psoriasis. In such cases, an attempt should be made to detect the underlying psoriasis by looking for a psoriatic patch in hidden areas viz. skin folds, groin or scalp. Here, we describe a case of PsA with dactylitis in this case report, with an emphasis on treatment and outcome. We also attempted to focus on the various treatment options for dactylitis.
