Clinical and imaging findings in enteropathic spondyloarthritis with special emphasize in diagnostic delay: a cross-sectional study.

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
Background: Enteropathic spondyloarthritides (eSpAs) are chronic inflammatory joint diseases associated with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Limited data are available on the prevalence since arthritis in IBD patients may be underestimated because medications may hide disease activity with a possible diagnostic delay. Objectives: We aimed to evaluate diagnostic delay in eSpA and explore associated demographic, clinical, and radiographic characteristics. Design: Single-centre cross-sectional study conducted on consecutive out-patients referred to the combined Methods: We analysed eSpA patients for diagnostic delay, disease activity, inflammatory markers, conventional radiography (CR) and magnetic resonance images (MRI) of sacroiliac joints/spine. Results: A total of 190 eSpA patients [118 peripheral SpA, 72 axial (Ax) SpA including 44 non-radiographic (nr)-axSpA] were enrolled. axSpA patients had a higher prevalence of men sex, HLA-B27 positivity, uveitis and pancolitis compared with peripheral eSpA. Median diagnostic delay in eSpA was 48 months (IQR 6-77) with no difference between axial and peripheral patients. Radiographic-axial SpA (r-axSpA) patients displayed a higher diagnostic delay compared with nr-axSpA (median/IQR 36/17-129 Conclusion: Diagnostic delay was higher in r-axSpA compared with nr-axSpA despite the same treatment. Demographic, clinical features and radiological lesions were associated with diagnostic delay.
