Predicted factors of surgical site infection in glioblastoma patients: A meta-analysis.
Synthesis in International wound journal, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It has been retracted, and should not be counted. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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
Surgical site infection (SSI) is one of the common postoperative complications after craniotomy for glioblastoma patients. Previous studies have investigated the risk factors for SSI in patients with glioblastoma. Whereas big differences in research results exist, and the correlation coefficients of different research results are quite different. A meta-analysis was conducted to examine the risk factors related to surgical site infection in patients with glioblastoma. We searched English databases to collect case-control studies or cohort studies published before 15 October 2023 including PubMed, Web of Science, Embase. The risk of bias of the included studies was assessed via Newcastle-Ottawa Scale. The analysis was performed using RevMan 5.4.1 tool. A total of 4 articles (n = 2222) were selected in this meta-analysis. The following risk factors were presented to be correlated with SSI in glioblastoma: irradiation (OR = 1.88, 95% CI [0.46, 7.60]), more than 3 surgeries (OR = 2.99, 95% CI [1.47, 6.08]). Occurrence of SSI is influenced by a variety of factors. Thus, we should pay close attention to high-risk subjects and take crucial targeted interventions to lower the SSI risk following craniotomy. Owing to the limited quality and quantity of the included studies, more rigorous studies with adequate sample sizes are needed to verify the conclusion.
