Teriparatide: an unexpected adjunct for the treatment of a long-standing infected elbow prosthesis prevented arm amputation.
Article in Clinical rheumatology, 2015. 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
A 76-year-old woman with rheumatoid arthritis, osteoporosis and multiple comorbidities presented with septic left elbow prosthesis. Treatment included combination antibiotic therapy and removal of the prosthesis. Weeks later she was started on teriparatide. Her elbow symptoms resolved. In our experience, this is the first case in the literature reporting teriparatide efficacy in the treatment of septic arthritis.
