1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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: HIV infection in patients undergoing Total joint arthroplasty (TJA) results in adverse postoperative outcomes. However, there are uncertain data regarding the extent of involvement of HIV in TJA and the individual complications associated with it. Therefore, we planned to conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis to assess the risk of HIV in causing complications after TJA. Methods: Electronic databases such as PubMed, Cochrane, and Google Scholar from inception till May 1, 2023. Studies evaluating complications in HIV-infected patients following TJA were selected. Statistical Analysis was performed through Revman. Results: A total of 16 studies evaluating 17,974,549 patients were included in the meta-analysis. HIV-infected patients were at increased risk of developing infectious complications (OR 1.82 [1.49, 2.22]; p < 0.00001; I Conclusion: HIV-infected patients are at an increased risk of complications following TJA. Knowledge regarding these individual complications will result in better monitoring and post-operative care.
