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

Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) and spondyloarthritis (SpA) may show several common signs. This study aimed to evaluate the frequency of SpA and its manifestations in FMF, the impact of SpA on FMF, and the associations of non-episodic findings (heel enthesitis, protracted arthritis, and sacroiliitis) with the FMF features. Demographic, clinical, imaging, and genetic data were retrieved from medical records of the patients with adult FMF. To identify patients who met the classification criteria for SpA, data including rheumatologic inquiry were recorded. Patients with SpA and those who did not meet the criteria were compared in terms of FMF features. Regression analyses were performed to determine the factors that were most associated with sacroiliitis, enthesitis, and protracted arthritis. Of the 283 patients with FMF, 74 (26.1%) met the SpA criteria (64 axial, 10 peripheral); and 65 (22.9%) patients had sacroiliitis, 27 (9.5%) protracted arthritis, and 61 (21.6%) heel enthesitis. Patients with SpA were older and had more FMF severity, and heel pain rate than those without; however, genetic features, CRP, resistance to colchicine, and heel enthesitis did not differ. A meaningful number of patients without SpA had also displayed heel enthesitis, protracted arthritis, inflammatory back pain, heel pain, family history of SpA, and elevated CRP. Age was found to be the main predictor of heel enthesitis and protracted arthritis was linked with FMF severity. A significant number of patients with FMF meet the peripheral SpA classification criteria as well as axial SpA. SpA and its shared manifestations with FMF may have an impact on FMF.
