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

backgroundPsoriatic arthritis (PsA) is a heterogeneous condition that is difficult to assess. The goal of this research was to evaluate the clinimetric properties of the Psoriatic Arthritis 5-Thermometer Scales (PsA-5Ts), a new patient-reported outcome (PRO) to measure the overall health status in PsA patients.

methodsThe PsA-5Ts were compared to composite measures of disease activity (DAPSA, PASDAS, CPDAI) and PROs (PsAID-12 and SF-36). The convergent validity was assessed through the Spearman's correlation coefficient and the discriminant validity through the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis, applying the Minimal Disease Activity (MDA) as an external criterion.

resultsThe cross-sectional assessment included 155 patients. Significant high correlations were observed when comparing PsA-5Ts to composite indices of disease activity and PROs (all at significance levels of

conclusionsThe PsA-5Ts are an easy-to-use PRO that can be integrated with disease activity indices in the assessment of PsA in daily clinical practice.
