Common Medical Comorbidities Correlated With Poor Outcomes in Hip Periprosthetic Infection.
Article in The Journal of arthroplasty, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
backgroundPeriprosthetic infection has been linked to risk factors such as diabetes, obesity, and smoking among others. This study examined the relationship between common patient comorbidities and hip periprosthetic infection outcomes.
methodsWe retrospectively reviewed the records of 149 culture-positive periprosthetic hip infections at our tertiary care center that underwent treatment between 2005 and 2015. Baseline characteristics and common comorbidities were analyzed with relation to rates of successfully treated infection, total surgeries for infection, and cumulative length of hospitalization using multivariate analysis.
resultsPatients with coronary artery disease or anemia had significantly lower rate of successfully treated infection. Patients with anemia or chronic pulmonary disease underwent significantly more surgery, and patients with chronic pulmonary disease, psychiatric disease, anemia, or diabetes spent significantly longer time in hospital.
conclusionPotentially modifiable cardiovascular, respiratory, and psychiatric diseases were associated with a decreased rate of successfully treated infection, more surgery, and longer hospitalization in treatment for hip periprosthetic infection in multivariate analysis.
