Microbiology of Periprosthetic Hip and Knee Infections in Surgically Revised Cases from 34 Centers in Mainland China.

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
BACKGROUND AND
aimPeriprosthetic joint infection (PJI) is one of the most devastating complications after total joint arthroplasty (TJA). However, the antibiotic resistance of infecting pathogens can significantly vary in different parts of the country. In the current study, we analyzed the demographic and microbiological profiles of knee and hip PJI over three years and compared the microbiological differences between them.
methodsA multicenter retrospective study of PJI patients in 34 referral medical centers in mainland China from January 2015 to November 2017 was performed.
resultsA total of 925 PJI patients were recruited, 452 were identified as knee PJIs, and 473 were hip PJIs. The most common causative pathogens were
conclusionWhile the majority of causative pathogens in PJI cases are staphylococcal species, the prevalence of atypical organisms and resistant pathogens should also be given attention and warrant the need for empiric antibiotic treatment.
