Current and Future Burden of Periprosthetic Joint Infection from National Claim Database.
Article in Journal of Korean medical science, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 37 papers, 2 of them syntheses 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
backgroundPeriprosthetic joint infection (PJI) is the most serious complication after total joint arthroplasty. The incidence and burden of PJI in North America have been reported. There might be potential differences according to ethnics and regional practices between western countries and East Asia. Nevertheless, its incidence in East Asia remains unknown. We aimed to evaluate the incidence and economic burden of PJI in Korea and to project the future burden.
methodsWe identified numbers of total hip arthroplasties, total knee arthroplasties and PJIs in Korea from 2010 to 2018 using medical claim data of Korean Health Insurance and Review and Assessment. Annual incidence and medical cost of PJI were calculated. We projected future burden of PJI through 2030 using Quasi-poisson regression model.
resultsThe annual incidence of PJI ranged from 2.3% to 2.8% and the average cost per each PJI patient ranged from $4,361 to $6,016. Total annual cost of PJI increased from $8.0 million in 2010 to $18.0 million in 2018 and was projected to exceed $57.0 million by 2030.
conclusionThe incidence of PJI in Korea is comparable with reported PJI incidence of 2.0%-2.7% in the United States. Our findings would be used for worldwide comparison of PJI epidemiology and establishment of healthcare policies for PJI in East Asia.
