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

Objectives: Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is a heterogeneous disease that presents challenges in both diagnosis and treatment. To address the disease burden, the Group of Research and Association of Psoriasis and Psoriatic Arthritis conducted surveys with patients to gain insights into patient experiences regarding treatment-refractory (TR-) and complex-to-manage (C2M-) PsA. The objective of this study was to analyse patient responses to open-ended questions. Methods: A descriptive inductive coding approach was applied in Dedoose software [SocioCultural Research Consultants, LLC (SCRC)] to systematically analyse demographic variables in terms of relevant thematic codes for health-related quality of life, work, and financial concerns. Results: We found that TR/C2M-PsA narratives consistently highlighted themes of negative impact on health-related quality of life, work, and finances, and these effects were perceived with varying intensities among both genders, across age groups, languages, and disease manifestations. Social determinants of health, including education attainment, occupation and relationship status, also played an important role in influencing patient responses regarding TR/C2M-PsA. Conclusions: This study addresses an important gap in the literature regarding the impact of TR/C2M-PsA on patient experience. We observed a critical role of demographic factors and social determinants of health in the narrative themes of patients with high disease burden.
