1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

objectiveTo investigate the association between peripheral disease activity and pre-eclampsia, gestational hypertension, preterm birth and fetal growth in women with psoriatic arthritis (PsA).

methodsData from a Norwegian nationwide register (RevNatus) were linked with data from the Medical Birth Registry of Norway (MBRN). Cases were singleton births in women with PsA with available disease activity assessment (n=109) included in RevNatus 2010 to 2019. Singleton births registered in MBRN during the same decade served as population controls (n=575 798). Disease activity was assessed by Disease Activity Score based on 28 joints using C reactive protein (DAS28-CRP) in 2nd and 3rd trimester. Active PsA was defined as DAS28-CRP≥2.6 (n=34) and inactive PsA as DAS28-CRP<2.6 (n=75).

resultsPre-eclampsia was most frequent in women with active PsA (3/34, 8.8%), with a risk difference of 6.1% (95% CI 0.3 to 20.3, p=0.036) compared with population controls (2.6%). Gestational hypertension occurred in 2/34 (5.9%) of women with active PsA, with a risk difference of 4.2% (95% CI 0.0 to 17.4, p=0.065) compared with population controls (1.7%). Pre-eclampsia and gestational hypertension occurred in similar proportions in women with inactive PsA (1.3%, p=0.59 and 2.7%, p=0.24, respectively) and population controls. The occurrence of preterm birth and abnormal fetal growth was comparable in cases and population controls.

conclusionHypertensive disorders of pregnancy occurred more often in women with active, but not inactive PsA. We found no increased risk for preterm birth or abnormal fetal growth in women with PsA.
