Main finding
As reported in the abstract
Five-reader Kappa reliability coefficients, item-wise (117 items with non-zero scores in >10 % of readings)
- Joints: IQR 0.58-0.73 (range 0.36-0.88)
- Entheses: IQR 0.65-0.81 (range 0.39-0.95)
- Chronic nonbacterial osteomyelitis-like lesions: IQR 0.62-0.75 (range 0.60-0.76)
