Research trends and focus of prosthetic joint infections from 2013 to 2023: bibliometric and visualization studies.
Synthesis in Frontiers in microbiology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Background: Postoperative infections in artificial joints provide considerable difficulties in the field of orthopedics, especially after joint replacement procedures. These infections rank among the most severe postoperative consequences, frequently leading to treatment ineffectiveness and reduced quality of life for surgery patients. Consequently, it is crucial to acquire knowledge about worldwide research trends in this area in order to educate clinical practices and improve therapeutic techniques. This work exploits bibliometric analysis to investigate the present state, developing patterns, and main areas of focus in research on artificial joint infection. Objective: To analyze the research trends, hotspots, and international collaborations on artificial joint infections worldwide from 2013 to 2023. Methods: Extractions of raw data were made from the WoSCC (Web of Science Core Collection) database. Detailed information collected includes the quantity of publications, authors, citations, publication year, h-index, references, country/region, journal, and keywords. Analysis of the data was conducted using VOSviewer version 1.6.10.0 and CiteSpace version 6.3.R1. Results: A total of 1,799 articles published between 2013 and 2023 were included in this analysis, showing a steady increase in publication with the United States leading at 553 articles. Infection rates and topics such as biofilm formation and antimicrobial resistance were highly cited, with Mayo Clinic contributing 65 articles as the most prolific institution. Conclusion: Research on biofilm infections, antibiotic resistance, and new biomarkers is a key focus, particularly on disrupting biofilms and enhancing diagnostics. There's growing attention in biomarkers like
