Impact of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia on Postoperative Complications and Periprosthetic Joint Infections After Total Joint Arthroplasty: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.
Article in Arthroplasty today, 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
Background: Total joint arthroplasty (TJA) is one of the most frequently performed surgical procedures each year, offering considerable cost-effectiveness and numerous benefits. However, certain postoperative complications can be observed following TJA. While the relationship between various comorbidities and these complications has been well-documented, this study aims to specifically investigate the impact of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) on postoperative outcomes. Methods: For this systematic review, we searched PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science using terms like "total hip arthroplasty," "total knee arthroplasty," "BPH," and "benign prostatic hypertrophy." Screening of retrieved articles was conducted according to Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. Studies comparing complications in TJA between patients with and without preexisting BPH were eligible for inclusion. Data extraction was performed on the included articles, and their quality was assessed using the Newcastle-Ottawa scale. A meta-analysis was conducted using the Mantel-Haenszel method. Results: This systematic review encompassed 4 articles evaluating TJA outcomes in men with a history of BPH, involving a total of 75,222 male cases. Among these, 17,183 cases (23%) presented with symptomatic BPH. The meta-analysis revealed that the incidence rate of periprosthetic joint infection did not significantly differ between BPH and non-BPH groups across both total hip and knee arthroplasty cases (odds ratio [OR] (95% confidence interval [CI]) = 1.28 [0.92-1.79]). However, postoperative urinary retention was significantly higher among patients with BPH (OR [95% CI] = 3.43 [2.04-5.78]). Additionally, patients with BPH exhibited a notably elevated incidence of postoperative urinary tract infection (OR [95% CI] = 2.55 [2.33-2.79]), as well as sepsis (OR [95% CI] = 1.31 [1.09-1.58]). Conclusions: It is noteworthy that while patients with BPH are prone to certain complications, meta-analysis indicate that BPH cannot be considered a comorbidity that increases the risk of periprosthetic joint infection.
