Septic arthritis of the hand: Current issues of etiology, pathogenesis, diagnosis, treatment.
Review in World journal of orthopedics, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Septic arthritis of the hand is a serious disease that often results in dysfunction of the joint or even the need to perform amputation of the finger. They rank second in the frequency of occurrence after lesions of the knee joint. Many points concerning the etiology, the timing of the development of cartilage destruction and the development of osteomyelitis, approaches to surgical treatment, the duration of antibiotic therapy, and the start of rehabilitation measures remain the subject of numerous discussions. Based on a search in the PubMed, Web of Science and Google Scholar databases down to 1990-2021, publications on septic arthritis of the hand were found and analyzed. The following inclusion criteria were used in our review: (1) Septic arthritis of the hand; (2) Published in a peer review journal; (3) Written in English; and (4) Full text version available. Studies were excluded if they met any of the following criteria: (1) Letters; (2) Articles published in abstract form only; and (3) Cadaveric studies. Septic arthritis of the hand was characterized by the most frequent damage to the joints of the index and middle fingers (> 50% of cases). Up to 90% of cases, the infection enters the joint as a result of penetrating trauma, animal bites,
