A Real Pain: Diagnostic Quandaries and Septic Arthritis.
Review in Journal of clinical microbiology, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 21 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
Rapid diagnosis and treatment of an infected joint are paramount in preserving orthopedic function. Here, we present a brief review of the many challenges associated with the diagnosis of both septic arthritis and prosthetic joint infections. We also discuss the many laboratory tests currently available to aid in the accurate diagnosis of joint infection, as well as emerging diagnostics that may have future utility in the diagnosis of these challenging clinical entities.
