Patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) and clinical decision-making in inflammatory rheumatic conditions: a systematic review.
Review in Rheumatology advances in practice, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Objectives: To examine the role of patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) in clinical decision-making across three inflammatory arthritides: RA, PsA and axial SpA (axSpA). Methods: We conducted a systematic review of four online medical literature databases (MEDLINE, Embase, CINAHL, Cochrane Central) from inception to February 2025. Abstracts and full texts were independently double-assessed. Articles examining the use and influence of PROMs on RA, PsA and axSpA clinical decision-making were included, with extracted data narratively synthesised (PROSPERO registration: CRD42024550525). Results: From 16 950 identified studies, 29 were included ( Conclusion: PROMs capture valuable patient data and show potential to support clinical decision-making, particularly in RA patients. Current PROM implementation methods are varied. Standardisation could maximise the clinical value of PROM data that, if acted upon, could enhance patient care and outcomes. However, service and clinician barriers, combined with poor standardisation, currently risk these data being underutilised.
