Clinical predictive factors for septic arthritis of the knee in children: A cohort study.
Article in Science progress. 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
ObjectiveCriteria to differentiate pediatric knee joint effusion remained inexpedient. This study aimed to establish a prediction rule to distinguish infection from other inflammatory arthritis in children presenting with knee pain.MethodsAn ambi-directional cohort was conducted at the university hospital from 1999 to 2021 by including children aged ≤ 15 years with knee pain/swelling, complete physical examination, knee imaging, laboratory, and/or synovial fluid analysis. Contaminated synovial fluid culture and incomplete medical records were excluded. Diagnosis of septic knee (positive joint fluid culture or synovial white blood cell counts > 50,000 cells/mm
