Periprosthetic Joint Infection in Patients with Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.
Review in Hip & pelvis, 2025. 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
Periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) represents a significant obstacle within the realm of orthopedic procedures. Certain medical conditions, such as benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) which causes blockages in the lower urinary system, have been suggested as potential PJI contributing factors. Nevertheless, the available evidence remains inconclusive regarding these associations. For enhancing treatment strategies and ultimately improving results achieved by individuals receiving care, gaining a better understanding of these relationships is imperative. All in accordance with the PRISMA 2020 guidelines, an indepth analysis was conducted utilizing structured and methodical review techniques, involving manual searches as well as databases like PubMed, EBSCO, and ProQuest. This review specifically included studies that provided information on both BPH and PJI. Through a meta-analytical approach, the data evaluation was conducted employing a random-effects framework. This process was facilitated by the use of Comprehensive Meta-Analysis software, version 3. Five research articles were analyzed, collectively revealing no meaningful correlation between BPH and an elevated likelihood of PJI, as indicated by the odds ratio (OR 1.228, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.914-1.649,
