Changes in cardiovascular risk factors in patients with inflammatory arthritis following screening consultations-a Danish register-based cohort study.
Article in EULAR rheumatology open, 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: Patients with chronic inflammatory arthritis (IA) (rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, and axial spondyloarthritis) have an increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Although the European Alliance of Associations for Rheumatology (EULAR) recommends systematic cardiovascular risk (CVR) management in these patients, knowledge about whether CVR management programmes significantly reduce risk factors and, thus, overall CVR in patients with IA remains limited. This study evaluated changes in CVR factors following nurse-led screening consultations with a motivational approach for patients with IA based on the EULAR recommendations. Methods: In a register-based cohort study, patients who had participated in at least 2 nurse-led screening consultations at the Danish Hospital for Rheumatic Diseases between September 2011 and September 2015 were included. Data on CVR risk factors were collected and analysed for changes from the first to the second screening consultation. Results: There were 595 patients included, with a mean of 683 days between the first and second consultations. The odds ratios (ORs) for improvement vs aggravation of CVR risk factors were significant for smoking, OR of 0.41 (95% CI, 0.17-0.92), and body mass index (BMI) ≥ 25 kg/m Conclusions: Although lifestyle change is difficult, we observed significant improvements in smoking and BMI after patients attended nurse-led screening consultations.
