Prosthetic Knee Joint Infection due to Salmonella Species: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
We present a case of a 79-year-old male with a Salmonella enteritidis prosthetic knee joint infection preceded by an episode of profuse diarrhea. The infection was treated with ceftriaxone antibacterial chemotherapy, and an arthroscopic knee joint washout. The initial treatment failed to eradicate the Salmonella infection. A second open washout procedure with the replacement of knee joint insert was performed along with the addition of ciprofloxacin to the ongoing ceftriaxone which eventually eradicated the infection. Although S. enteritidis is a very rare cause of prosthetic knee infection, suspicion of Salmonella as a potential causative agent should be borne in mind particularly if the onset of the symptoms is preceded by gastrointestinal manifestations.
