Performance of the 2017 EULAR/ACR Classification Criteria for adult and juvenile idiopathic inflammatory myopathies and their major subgroups: a scoping review.
Article in Clinical and experimental rheumatology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
The 2017 EULAR/ACR classification criteria for adult/juvenile idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIM) were established using a data-driven approach by an international group of myositis experts to allow classification of IIM and its major subtypes. Since their publication, the performance of the criteria has been tested in multiple cohorts worldwide and significant limitations have been identified. Moreover, the understanding and classification of IIM have evolved since 2017. This scoping review was undertaken as part of a large international project to revise the EULAR/ACR criteria and aims to i) summarise the evidence from the current literature on the performance characteristics of the 2017 EULAR/ACR classification criteria in various cohorts and IIM subtypes, and ii) delineate the factors that need to be considered in the revision of the classification criteria. A systematic search of Medline (via PubMed), Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature, and conference abstract archives was conducted independently by three investigators for studies on the EULAR/ACR criteria published between October 2017 and January 2023. This scoping review of 19 articles and 13 abstracts revealed overall good performance characteristics of the EULAR/ACR criteria for IIM, yet deficiencies in lack of inclusion of certain IIM subtypes, such as immune mediated necrotising myopathy, amyopathic dermatomyositis, antisynthetase syndrome and overlap myositis. Published modifications that may improve the performance characteristics of the criteria for classification of IIM subtypes were also summarised. The results of this review suggest that a revision of the EULAR/ACR criteria is warranted.
