Oral Antibiotic Therapy for Shoulder Periprosthetic Joint Infection: Current and Evolving Concepts.
Review in JB & JS open access. 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
» Conventional treatment of shoulder periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) consists of prolonged intravenous (IV) antibiotics injected into a PICC line. This method can be associated with adverse events such as catheter-related infections, extended hospitalizations, and higher medical costs. » The OVIVA trial demonstrated that oral antibiotics are no less effective than IV antibiotics as previously thought for complex orthopedic infections. These findings have sparked interest in the use of oral antibiotics for shoulder PJI. » Current data on the use of oral antibiotics in shoulder PJI is limited but growing. A number of studies assess the effects of oral antibiotic therapy on the shoulder, with most being small and retrospective. » Early evidence in shoulder PJI suggests that oral antibiotic therapy may provide satisfactory outcomes in select cases, though confirmation in high-quality, multicenter trials is essential.
