Incidence and Course of Joint Inflammation Associated with Inflammatory Bowel Disease in Patients Undergoing Treatment with Vedolizumab/Ustekinumab: The VEDUSTAR Study.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundThe role of ustekinumab (UST) and vedolizumab (VDZ) in the extraintestinal joint manifestations of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) remain unclear, and most existing studies are retrospective. The aim of this prospective study was to analyze the incidence of new-onset joint disease or the worsening of pre-existing IBD-associated joint disease in patients treated with UST and VDZ.
methodsThe study population comprised IBD patients with previous spondyloarthritis (SpA) or new-onset arthropathy undergoing treatment with VDZ or UST.
resultsEighty patients were referred to rheumatology because of previous SpA or onset of symptoms. Most patients (90%) were anti-TNF experienced. Two patients with previous SpA (2/22; 9%) experienced a flare-up (one with UST and one with VDZ), and two patients with VDZ developed SpA during follow-up (2/58; 3%). Only one of these four patients did not have gastrointestinal symptoms, and VDZ was discontinued because of joint symptoms. The other three patients had concomitant intestinal activity, and treatment was not discontinued.
conclusionOur experience shows that treatment with UST and VDZ did not worsen joint disease in patients with SpA. Most remained stable or improved. In addition, poor control of IBD in patients with joint flare-ups could be the main cause of worsening SpA.
