Article in The archives of bone and joint surgery, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 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
backgroundGiven high rates of positive
methodsBetween April 2017 and May 2017 swabs were taken during primary shoulder arthroplasty. After surgical time out, using sterile gloves, a sterile swab was opened and exposed to the air for 5 seconds, returned to its contained, and sealed. One swab was sent to our institution's microbiology laboratory for aerobic and anaerobic culture and held for 13 days. The other sample was sent for NGS (MicroGen Dx, Lubbock, TX), where samples were amplified for pyrosequencing using a forward and reverse fusion primer and matched against a DNA library for species identification.
resultsFor 40 consecutive cases, swabs were sent for culture and NGS.
conclusionWe demonstrate that the two most commonly cultured organisms (
