Assessment of disease activity and quality of life of Korean patients with rheumatoid arthritis.
Review in Journal of rheumatic diseases, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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 management of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) follows a treat-to-target approach, as recommended by guidelines from the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) and the European League Against Rheumatism (EULAR). RA treatment recommendations include an emphasis on frequent disease activity assessments to optimize therapy, recognizing the possibility of timely therapies to slow progression and improve long-term results. The evaluation of joint inflammation, pain, physical function, and clinical indicators is required for comprehensive RA therapy. Current therapeutic goals include achieving low disease activity or remission to enhance the quality of life (QoL) for patients. ACR-endorsed RA disease activity measures, such as the Disease Activity Score in 28 Joints with erythrocyte sedimentation rate or C-reactive protein level, Simplified Disease Activity Index (SDAI), Clinical Disease Activity Index (CDAI), Patient Activity Scale-II, and Routine Assessment of Patient Index Data 3, are recommended for their precision and sensitivity in supporting treat-to-target strategies. The ACR and EULAR have implemented Boolean-based and index-based remission criteria (SDAI and CDAI, respectively) to evaluate therapeutic effectiveness. The use of these markers regularly aligns with the ACR guidelines, improving adherence to quality indicators in clinical practice and confirming the provision of high-quality RA therapy. This review examines disease activity, function, and QoL measurements in line with the ACR and EULAR guidelines to aid doctors in treating Korean patients with RA.
