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.

methodsA retrospective analysis was conducted at the University Hospital of Nice (France) between 2010 and 2019. We included patients with one shoulder implant surgical procedure and at least one
resultsForty-eight SIJI were identified and 33 were treated with clindamycin, among which 25 were treated with monotherapy. The median duration of clindamycin antibiotherapy was 6 weeks. The average follow-up was 45 months; one patient was lost to follow-up. Twenty-seven patients out of 33 (82%) were cured with clindamycin, compared to 9/12 (75%) with other antibiotics. The rate of favorable outcomes increased to 27/31 (87%) with clindamycin and to 9/10 (90%) for other antibiotics when no septic revision strategies were excluded (
conclusionsThe therapeutic strategy based on one- or two-stage revision associated with 6 weeks of clindamycin seems to be effective.
