Proteomic profile at the time of surgery correlates with disease stage and surgical outcome in periprosthetic joint infection.
Article in mBio, 2025. 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
Periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) is the most common and difficult to treat form of arthroplasty failure. While treatment with debridement, antibiotics, and implant retention (DAIR) is preferable to one- or two-stage implant exchange based on morbidity and cost, outcomes are not successful in all cases selected for this management strategy. DAIR is currently recommended when infection is perceived to be in an "acute" phase, based on symptom duration; despite this selection strategy, DAIR failure rates are high. A more objective means of predicting DAIR success could improve patient outcomes by limiting DAIR failures. To explore this possibility, advanced proteomic analysis of sonicate fluid samples from 95 subjects with PJI was performed using proximity extension assay (PEA), with 77 samples additionally undergoing complementary proteomics analysis with liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). Sparse partial least squares differentiation analysis (sPLS-DA) separated samples from patients who underwent DAIR with known outcomes (
