Risk of Acute Anterior Uveitis in Ankylosing Spondylitis According to the Type of Tumor Necrosis Factor-Alpha Inhibitor and History of Uveitis: A Nationwide Population-Based Study.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
backgroundWe evaluated the risk of acute anterior uveitis (AAU) in patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS) during treatment with tumor necrosis factor-alpha inhibitors (TNFis).
methodsThis study was performed on AS patients using the Korean National Health Insurance claims database. We analyzed the first and total occurrence of AAU during the first 2 years of TNFis use according to the type of TNFis. Additionally, the occurrence of AAU was assessed in subgroups with or without prior AAU before TNFis initiation.
resultsIn total, 5938 AS patients initiated TNFis use between 2009 and 2017 and used them for more than 2 years. Among them, 1488 (25.1%) patients had a history of AAU before starting TNFis treatment. Compared to adalimumab, the use of etanercept (hazard ratio [HR] 1.77) increased the risk of AAU. The incidence rate ratio (IRR) of AAU with etanercept was significantly higher than that of adalimumab (IRR 1.78). The IRR of AAU was also higher for etanercept than adalimumab use in patients with (IRR 1.86) and without (IRR 2.92) a history of AAU.
conclusionThese data suggest that compared to anti-TNF-alpha monoclonal antibodies, etanercept has a higher incidence of AAU regardless of a history of AAU.
