Study of Inflammatory and Infection Markers in Periprosthetic Fluid: Correlation with Blood Analysis in Retrospective and Prospective Studies.
Article in BioMed research international, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundSurgical site infection represents the most severe complication in prosthetic breast reconstruction. Risk profiling represents a useful tool for both clinicians and patients. MATERIALS AND
methodsIn our hospital, 534 breast reconstructions with tissue expander implants, in 500 patients, were performed. Several clinical variables were collected. In our study, we evaluated the different inflammatory markers present in the periprosthetic fluid and we compared them with the ones present in plasma.
resultsThe surgical site infection rate resulted to be 10.5%, and reconstruction failed in 4.5% of the cases. The hazard ratio for complications was 2.3 in women over 60 (CI: 1.3-4.07;
conclusionsSeveral risk factors (prolonged time of drains, age older than 60 years, and radiotherapy) have been confirmed by our study. The study of markers in the periprosthetic fluid with respect to their study in plasma could point toward earlier infection detection and support early management.
