Effectiveness and Safety of Certolizumab Pegol in Axial Spondyloarthritis in a Real-World Setting in Greece: A Sub-Analysis of the Prospective Non-Interventional CIMAX Cohort Study.
Article in Mediterranean journal of rheumatology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT02354105 (A Noninterventional Study to Assess the Effectiveness of Certolizumab Pegol in Patients With Axial Spondyloarthritis in Daily Practice), which is not on this 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

Abstract
Objectives: We report the effectiveness and safety of certolizumab pegol (CZP) treatment in a real-world Greek axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) population, including patients with radiographic (r-axSpA) and non-radiographic (nr-axSpA) disease. Methods: We performed a sub-analysis of the Greek cohort from CIMAX (NCT02354105), a multicentre, non-interventional cohort study that prospectively investigated CZP treatment in patients with axSpA. The primary outcome was change from baseline (CfB) in Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index (BASDAI) to Week 52. Results: Across 12 sites in Greece, 126 patients (r-axSpA: 91; nr-axSpA: 35) received ≥1 dose of CZP and were included in the Safety Set (SS), with 120 patients (r-axSpA: 86; nr-axSpA: 34) included in the Full Analysis Set (FAS). The mean (standard deviation [SD]) CfB in BASDAI at Week 52 was -3.8 (2.0) in the overall axSpA population, with numerically greater improvements observed for nr-axSpA patients compared with r-axSpA (nr-axSpA: -4.2 [2.1]; r-axSpA: -3.7 [2.0]). Improvements in the axSpA population, including r-axSpA and nr-axSpA subpopulations, were observed in key secondary and additional outcomes at Week 52. Overall, 14.3% (18/126) of patients in the axSpA population experienced ≥1 adverse event (AE). There were no serious AEs or deaths reported during the study. Conclusions: Patients with r-axSpA and nr-axSpA treated with CZP in clinical practice in Greece showed improvements in disease activity and key symptoms. CZP treatment may therefore help address the substantial health burden associated with axSpA in Greece.
