A Patient with Symmetrical Polyarthritis. The Value of Conventional Radiography for a Correct Diagnosis.

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
purpose of reviewAmong the imaging modalities for the investigation of articular damage of patients with peripheral inflammatory arthropathies, conventional radiography (CR) is the mostly used. Other imaging modalities such as the musculoskeletal ultrasonography, magnetic resonance imaging, and dual-energy computed tomography scans are often used depending on a patient's clinical needs. RECENT
findingsWith the publication of new classification criteria for rheumatoid arthritis (RA), spondyloarthropathies, polymyalgia rheumatica, and others, many physicians are not using any of the above imaging techniques because they believe that by relying only on the classification criteria of a disease the diagnosis can be an easy task. We present a patient with peripheral symmetrical polyarthritis involving the small joints of the hands, diagnosed and treated as RA and we discuss the role of imaging, especially the use of CR as an initial screening tool for the evaluation of the articular manifestations and joint damage, and its further usefulness in order to reach a definitive correct diagnosis.
