1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

objectiveAxial disease is common and burdensome in patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA). Human leukocyte antigen-B27 (HLA-B27) is a risk factor for axial PsA; treatment response by HLA-B27 status is inadequately characterized. This study evaluated responses to biologic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (bDMARDs) or targeted synthetic DMARDs (tsDMARDs) overall and by HLA-B27 status in patients with PsA axial disease.

methodsThis observational study included participants in the CorEvitas (formerly Corrona) PsA/Spondyloarthritis Registry who initiated bDMARD or tsDMARD treatment at baseline, had a 6-month follow-up visit, fulfilled Classification Criteria for Psoriatic Arthritis, had a baseline Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index (BASDAI) score of ≥4, and had known HLA-B27 status. Disease characteristics at baseline and 6 months were evaluated overall and by HLA-B27 status. Association between HLA-B27 status and treatment response was evaluated using an analysis of covariance model.

resultsThe analysis included 173 bDMARD or tsDMARD treatment initiations (54 [31.2%] among patients with HLA-B27+ status and 119 [68.8%] among patients with HLA-B27- status). BASDAI total and component scores decreased by ≤0.84 across groups after 6 months of bDMARD or tsDMARD therapy; these changes are not considered clinically meaningful. HLA-B27 status was not statistically significantly associated with changes in axial-related outcomes.

conclusionIn patients with PsA axial disease, 6 months of bDMARD or tsDMARD therapy provided only mild improvements in axial-related outcomes, irrespective of HLA-B27 status. This continued high disease activity reflects a critical unmet need for focus on the axial domain of PsA and for additional safe and effective therapies for psoriatic axial disease.
