Incidence, characteristics, and outcomes of patients with bone and joint infections due to community-associated methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus: a systematic review.
Synthesis in European journal of clinical microbiology & infectious diseases : official publication of the European Society of Clinical Microbiology, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 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
To summarize the published evidence of community-associated methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (CA-MRSA) bone and joint infections. PubMed and Scopus electronic databases were searched. The annual incidence of invasive CA-MRSA infections ranged from 1.6 to 29.7 cases per 100,000, depending on the location of the population studied; bone and joint infections accounted for 2.8 to 43 % of invasive CA-MRSA infections. Surveillance studies showed that patients <2 years of age are mainly affected. Incidence rates were higher in blacks. Sixty-seven case reports and case series were identified; the majority of the patients included were children. Vancomycin and clindamycin were used effectively, in addition to surgical interventions. Seven patients out of 413 died (1.7 %) in total. Chronic osteomyelitis developed in 19 patients (data for 164 patients were available). The published evidence for CA-MRSA bone and joint infections refers mainly to children; their incidence depends on the location and race of the population. Vancomycin and clindamycin have been used effectively for their treatment.
