The Use of Antibiograms in Orthopedic Surgery.
Review in Current reviews in musculoskeletal medicine, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
purpose of reviewOrganism identification and antibiotic selection remain a critical component of periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) treatment. Prior to organism identification and/or the availability of antibiotic sensitivities, empiric antibiotics are routinely started. A basic understanding of a region or institutions antibiogram is paramount for selection of an empiric treatment regimen. Evolving antibiogram results and regional antibiotic resistance are important to follow as this may change antibiotic selection in some patient populations. RECENT
findingsThe Clinical Laboratory and Standards Institute (CLSI) has created guidelines and standards for the creation and maintenance of antibiograms that should be followed by institutions. The infecting organism during PJI may be different in acute vs chronic infections and empiric therapy may change depending on the timing. Antibiotic prophylaxis for major procedures in certain patient populations should be critically evaluated based on regional and national antibiogram results. The CLSI guides recommendations and antibiotic resistance testing techniques and should be consulted when creating an antibiogram. The local and regional antibiogram should be consulted prior to administration of empiric and prophylactic antibiotics.
