Microbiological Profile of Instrumented Spinal Infections: 10-Year Study at a French Spine Center.
Article in Antibiotics (Basel, Switzerland), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
objectiveThe objective was to compare the microbiological characteristics and treatment of early and late surgical site infections (SSIs) in instrumented spinal surgery.
methodsThose patients admitted for SSIs in a single center between January 2010 and December 2022 were included. The subjects were divided into early (eSSIs) and late (lSSIs) SSIs, and demographic, microbiological, treatment, and follow-up data were collected.
resultsInstrumented spinal surgery was performed in 2136 patients. Ninety-six cases of infections were identified (prevalence = 4.5%), with 47.9% eSSIs and 52.1% lSSIs. In 58.7% of the cases, the eSSIs were monomicrobial:
conclusionsEnterobacterales were found in most of the polymicrobial infections regardless of the time of infection onset. Further large studies should be conducted to precisely determine the management and prevention regarding the increasing Gram-negative bacteria SSIs.
