[Perioperative antibiotic prophylaxis. Use in orthopaedics].
Review in Der Orthopade, 2006. 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
Perioperative antibiotic prophylaxis in orthopaedics is only indicated if a foreign body such as a prosthetic joint remains in the operation site. For this indication first or second generation cephalosporins should be preferred. It is essential to administer the antibiotic within 30 min before incision. In the case of an extended intervention (more than 3 h) a repeated dose should be considered. It is evidence-based that prolonged perioperative antibiotic prophylaxis (more then 24 h) is not beneficial. To avoid the emergence of resistances or hygienic insufficiencies surveillance of surgical site infections should be enforced. Optimal conditions are necessary to achieve a rate of surgical site infection in orthopaedics below 1% in patients with normal infection risk profile.
