Screening for Spondyloarthritis in Patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease - SPARTAN 2024 Annual Meeting Proceedings.
Review in Current rheumatology reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
purpose of reviewThere is an unmet need to adequately identify, describe and treat the musculoskeletal manifestations of patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). At the 2024 SPARTAN annual meeting, we reviewed the current literature on the prevalence and presentation of spondyloarthritis in patients with IBD and discussed screening strategies to select symptomatic patients for further study. The primary goal is to improve understanding and recognition of spondyloarthritis in this patient population. RECENT
findingsIn a unique collaboration between U.S. gastroenterologists and rheumatologists, the Gastroenterology and Rheumatology assessment of Spondyloarthritis in Inflammatory Bowel Disease (GRaSp-IBD) study group designed and executed a multi-center study across six institutions that applied a hybrid screening tool to identify patients with musculoskeletal symptoms suggestive of spondyloarthritis. The data was analyzed for confirmed rheumatic disease, treatment history, patient and IBD characteristics. Of the patients that screened positive, the majority (69%) had not seen a rheumatologist within the past year. IBD phenotype did not seem to increase the risk of a positive screen, but a higher number of biologic exposures proved significant. IBD patients report musculoskeletal pain at a high rate but a minority of these patients are seen by rheumatologists. Further study is needed to determine how to optimize screening for IBD arthritis, and to improve referral rates and clinical outcomes.
