Article in Der Orthopade, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
In most cases spondylodiscitis is due to a monomicrobial infection caused by hematogenous dissemination of Staphylococcus aureus. There are, however, many other possible pathogens causing spondylodiscitis and the pathogen responsible can only be identified in approximately 50% of cases. This leads to delayed diagnosis and therapy and an increased morbidity and mortality rate. Failures in planning and performing material recovery are often the reason. As pathogen-specific antimicrobial treatment according to the results of susceptibility testing is the main component of interdisciplinary therapy, all available methods for identification of the pathogen, such as blood cultures, intraoperative and computed tomography (CT) guided biopsies of inflammatory fluids and tissues as well as molecular biological methods should be performed to optimize antimicrobial therapy.
