Native and prosthetic septic arthritis in a university hospital in Saudi Arabia: A retrospective study.
Article in World journal of orthopedics, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundSeptic arthritis, whether native or prosthetic, poses a significant challenge in clinical practice due to its potentially devastating consequences. Despite its clinical importance, there remains a dearth of comprehensive studies and standardized diagnostic criteria, particularly in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
aimTo investigate the epidemiology, microbiological profiles, and clinical characteristics of native and prosthetic septic joints in the Saudi Arabian population.
methodsMedical records of patients diagnosed with septic arthritis between January 1, 2015, and December 31, 2022, were retrospectively reviewed. Data regarding patient demographics, clinical presentation, microbiological cultures, treatment modalities, and outcomes were analyzed.
resultsIn a retrospective review of 52 cases of septic arthritis, a balanced gender distribution was observed (1:1 ratio), with the knee being the most commonly affected joint (80.8%). Methicillin-resistant
conclusionThis study highlighted distinctive microbiological profiles and etiological factors in septic arthritis cases in the Saudi Arabian population.
