Patient-Reported Outcomes in Calcium Pyrophosphate Deposition Disease Compared to Gout and Osteoarthritis.

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
objectiveCalcium pyrophosphate deposition (CPPD) disease prevalence is similar to that of gout and osteoarthritis (OA), yet CPPD outcomes research greatly lags behind research in these other forms of arthritis. We compared validated patient-reported outcome measures in patients with CPPD vs gout and OA.
methodsPatients with CPPD were recruited from Brigham and Women's Hospital from 2018 to 2022. Presence of CPPD manifestations (acute calcium pyrophosphate [CPP] crystal arthritis, chronic CPP inflammatory arthritis, and/or OA with CPPD) was confirmed by medical record review. Baseline surveys included the Gout Assessment Questionnaire version 2.0, modified to ask about "pseudogout" rather than "gout"; Routine Assessment of Patient Index Data 3 (RAPID-3); and Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC). We compared responses in patients with CPPD against published gout and OA cohort studies.
resultsAmong 47 patients with CPPD, the mean age was 71.9 years and 51% were female. Sixty-eight percent had at least 1 episode of acute CPP crystal arthritis, 40% had chronic CPP inflammatory arthritis, and 62% had OA with CPPD. Pain visual analog scale scores during a flare were similar in CPPD (mean 6.8 [SD 1.9]) and gout (mean 6.7 [SD 2.6];
conclusionPatients with CPPD may experience pain comparable to that in gout and OA and reported substantial unmet treatment needs.
