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 a serious complication following reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA). We report a case of delayed PJI after RSA that was successfully treated with one-stage revision surgery combined with continuous local antibiotic perfusion (CLAP). A 72-year-old man with diabetes underwent RSA for cuff tear arthropathy at another hospital 21 months ago. Four months before presentation, he developed pain, swelling, warmth, and discharge from the surgical site, and PJI was diagnosed. Initial debridement, implant exchange, and antibiotic therapy were attempted at the previous hospital; however, the infection persisted, prompting a referral to our institution. On admission, wound drainage was observed; blood tests showed WBC 6,400/μL and C-reactive protein (CRP) 0.07 mg/dL. Culture identified extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing
