Risk Factors for Infection in Patients Undergoing Shoulder Arthroscopy.
Review in Indian journal of orthopaedics, 2026. 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
Introduction: Arthroscopic procedures have demonstrated good short- and long-term outcomes as compared to open surgeries. Though arthroscopy is considered to be a safer procedure, this paper aims to review established and emerging risk factors for infection in shoulder arthroscopy. Materials and Methods: A comprehensive search of Medline (Ovid), Embase, CINAHL, and PubMed was done from inception till January 2025. Discussion: We have summarised our findings based on each risk factor identified and the relevance. Patient-related risk factors, such as diabetes mellitus, obesity, corticosteroid injection, older age, previous surgery, ASA grade, hypertension, gender, smoking and alcohol consumption, and malnutrition, have been presented in the paper. We also have looked at surgery related risk factors, such as duration of surgery, use of various implants, and type of arthroscopic surgery. Conclusion: Our findings have important clinical implications for preventing the occurrence of infection after shoulder arthroscopy.
