Kingella kingae Induced Septic Arthritis in the Knee Revealing an Unexpected Diagnosis of Multiple Myeloma, a Case Report.
Article in Journal of orthopaedic case reports, 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
Introduction: Kingella kingae has become an increasingly significant cause of osteoarticular infection in children under the age of 4. The bacteria is infrequent in adults. Previous reports have indicated its association with infections, primarily affecting immunocompromised individuals. Only a few cases of isolated septic knee arthritis in immunocompetent patients caused by K. kingae have been reported. Case Report: We present a case involving a 64-year-old male with an unremarkable medical history diagnosed with septic arthritis in the knee attributed to K. kingae. He was treated with antibiotic therapy and joint irrigation and discharged with outpatient follow-up on the 9th day. The diagnosis led to an unexpected finding of multiple myeloma prompting further treatment. Conclusion: This case confirms that K. kingae can cause septic arthritis in adults and physicians and microbiologists should be alert to the possibility, especially in adults with an underlying disease.
