Effect of Nutritional Ingredients on Disease Activation in Psoriatic Arthritis.
Article in Archives of rheumatology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
BACKGROUND/
aimsTo investigate the relationship between food composition and patterns and disease activity in psoriatic arthritis (PsA) patients. MATERIALS AND
methodsThis cross-sectional study evaluated patients with PsA (n = 73). Sociodemographic and disease-related parameters, including the duration of illness, Disease Activity Index for PsA (DAPSA), C-reactive protein, erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), the Health Assessment Questionnaire (HAQ), and Mediterranean Diet Compatibility Scale were assessed. Nutrient intake was recorded over 3 days and analyzed using a standard nutritional analysis program. Processed food consumption was classified according to the NOVA system.
resultsAmong the patients with PsA, 71.2% of patients were female, 42.5% were obese, and 72.6% had low adherence to the Mediterranean diet (MD). The body mass index (BMI) and HAQ scores were higher in those with moderate-severe disease (DAPSA ≥ 15) than in those in remission or with mild disease (DAPSA ≤ 14) (P = 0.006 and P = 0.008, respectively). The MD adherence score was negatively correlated with the DAPSA, HAQ, and ESR (P = .025, P = .015, and P = .006, respectively). Higher adherence to the MD was associated with a lower risk of moderate-to-severe disease, while increases in cholesterol intake, sodium intake, and BMI were associated with a higher risk of disease severity.
conclusionObesity negatively affects disease progression in PsA. A protein-rich and a low-sodium diet appear to support remission, while poor adherence to the MD and high cholesterol intake may contribute to increased disease activity. These findings emphasize the importance of nutrition in the clinical course of PsA. Cite this article as: Varkal G, Akarca NN, Türk İ, Yetişir A, Mete B.
