Improving the Diagnosis of Orthopedic Implant-Associated Infections: Optimizing the Use of Tools Already in the Box.
Article 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 12 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
With the increasing number of prosthetic joints replaced annually worldwide, orthopedic implant-associated infections (OIAI) present a considerable burden. Accurate diagnostics are required to optimize surgical and antimicrobial therapy. Sonication fluid cultures have been shown in multiple studies to improve the microbiological yield of OIAIs, but uptake of sonication has not been widespread in many routine clinical microbiology laboratories. In this issue, M. Dudareva and colleagues (J Clin Microbiol 56:e00688-18, 2018, https://doi.org/10.1128/JCM.00688-18) describe their unit's experience with OIAI diagnosis using periprosthetic tissue inoculated into an automated blood culture system and sonication fluid culture.
