Clinical characteristics of ankylosing spondylitis patients depending on neuropathic pain.
Article in Reumatologia, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Introduction: Neuropathic pain (NP) in ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is an important factor that complicates patients' everyday activities and leads to a decrease of life quality. Detection and diagnosis of NP can be facilitated by the use of screening instruments, and the comparative assessment of the sensitivity of different scales is important for improving the diagnosis and personalizing the treatment of AS.The aim of the study was to analyze prevalence of NP in patients with AS and clinical features of AS patients depending on the presence of NP. Material and methods: We examined 94 patients with NP and 48 patients without pain in AS using the following questionnaires: LANSS, DN4, StEP, BASFI, BASMI, BASDAI, HAQ, ASAS HI/EF and BAS-G. Results: The prevalence of NP according to LANSS was 51.7% in women and 32.7% in men ( Conclusions: The prevalence of NP in AS is alarmingly high. Even with low scores on screening scales, patients showed signs of NP, which may indicate higher prevalence of NP. Neuropathic pain is more associated with the activity of the disease, greater loss of functional capacity and a decrease in indicators of the general state of health, which allows it to be considered as an aggravating factor regarding these manifestations.
