Should a Urinary Tract Infection Be Treated before a Total Joint Arthroplasty?
Review in Hip & pelvis, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06896643 (Urinary Infection and Colonization in Bone Procedures), which is not on this map. Cited by 9 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.

Abstract
Periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) is one of the most serious complications after total joint arthroplasty (TJA). The prevalence of urinary tract infection (UTI) is common, particularly among elderly women, a group for whom TJA may be required. The association between preoperative UTI and increased risk of PJI after TJA is unclear. We reviewed key articles concerning the relationship between UTIs and PJI, and summarized recommendations of international consensus on PJI, which was established in Philadelphia in July of 2018. In addition, we distinguish between symptomatic UTI and asymptomatic bacteriuria, because their causative effects on PJI are quite different.
