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

objectiveWe aimed to analyze the clinical characteristics of patients with psoriasis and determine the predictive factors of psoriatic arthritis (PsA).

methodsThis retrospective cohort study was performed among patients with psoriasis. Demographic and clinical data were collected. Psoriasis treatment was categorized as topical agents, phototherapy, oral therapy, and biologics. Predictive factors of PsA development were determined using logistic regression analyses.

resultsWe included 330 patients with psoriasis, and 83 (25%) patients developed PsA. Thirty-eight (45.8%) patients who developed PsA were Malay, 24 (28.9%) were Chinese, and 21 (25.3%) were Indian. The mean age of patients with PsA was 54.2 (±15.8) years, and the duration from diagnosis of psoriasis to diagnosis of PsA was 36 (3.5-114) months. Predictive factors for developing PsA were female sex (odds ratio [OR] = 3.33, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.78-6.22), presence of nail involvement (OR = 5.36, 95% CI 2.50-11.51), severe psoriasis (OR = 27.41, 95% CI 7.58-99.11), and oral systemic therapy prior to PsA diagnosis (OR = 4.09, 95% CI 2.04-8.22).

conclusionPatients with psoriasis who are female, have nail involvement, severe skin psoriasis, and require oral systemic therapy for psoriasis may have an increased risk of developing PsA.
