Article in Der Unfallchirurg, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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 differentiation of periprosthetic infections into early onset and late onset infections is the determining factor fores the therapeutic strategy. The diagnosis of chronic unapparent infections is sometimes difficult. The therapeutic success, especially in early onset infections, is essentially influenced by a well-timed diagnosis and an immediate therapy. Surgical wound debridement with preservation of the prosthesis, one-stage replacement and two-stage replacement all with concomitant appropriate systemically administered double combined antibiotics are therapeutic options depending on factors, such as the duration of the infection. Prosthesis replacement is currently the only option to treat biofilm colonization of endoprosthetic surfaces. The bacterial adhesion on polyethylene can be extremely resistant. Due to the therapeutic consequences, periprosthetic infections remain one of the worst complications in endoprosthetic joint replacement.
