Association of enthesitis with severity of psoriasis in psoriatic arthritis: an observational study.
Observational study in Rheumatology international, 2024. 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
The relationship between dermatological and articular manifestations of psoriatic disease remains incompletely elucidated. There is no strong correlation between the severity of cutaneous psoriasis and the clinical phenotypes of psoriatic arthritis (PsA). This study aims to examine the correlation between the severity of psoriasis and various clinical features, including measures of severity and activity of PsA, in a real-world clinical setting. Seventy-six consecutive adult patients of both genders with confirmed diagnoses of psoriatic arthritis (PsA) and psoriasis were included in the study. The Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) was assessed alongside various PsA variables: tender joint count (TJC), swollen joint count (SJC), duration of morning stiffness, presence of dactylitis and number of affected digits, presence of enthesitis and Maastricht Ankylosing Spondylitis Enthesitis Score (MASES), patient's global assessment (PGA), and examiner's global assessment (EGA). Associations were analyzed using the Spearman correlation test and the Kruskal-Wallis test. Statistical significance was established at p = 0.05. Forty-two men and thirty-four women, median age of 56 (range 33-85) years, participated in the study. The median duration of psoriasis was 216 (range 0-600) months and median duration of PsA was 120 (range 7-456) months. There was no significant correlation between PASI and any PsA variables, except for the correlation between PASI and the presence of enthesitis (ρ = 0.285; p = 0.013). Moreover, older patients and patients with a long history of psoriasis manifested more often with enthesis as a sign of PsA. Our findings emphasize the correlation between the severity of psoriasis and presence of enthesitis in patients with PsA.
