1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Background: The incidence of acute prosthetic joint infections (PJIs) that develop within one year following aseptic revision total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) has been poorly described. The purpose of this study was to identify the rate of PJI following aseptic revision TSA. Methods: A retrospective cohort study was performed of patients who underwent aseptic revision TSA identified by Current Procedural Terminology codes 23473 and 23474 at a single academic institution between 2015 and 2022. Only patients with negative intraoperative cultures held for a minimum of 14 days were included. Patients were followed for one year postoperatively to identify acute periprosthetic joint infections, which were classified using the 2018 International Consensus Meeting shoulder-specific criteria. Demographic, perioperative, and clinical variables were compared between infected and noninfected cohorts. Results: Overall, 140 patients met the inclusion criteria. Of these, 7 developed an acute PJI (5.0% infection rate). There was no statistical difference in patient age (64.9 vs. 69.0; Conclusion: Aseptic revision TSA was found to have a 5.0% rate of acute PJIs within the first year postoperatively. There was no significant difference in age, body mass index, gender, history of tobacco use, underlying comorbidities, length of operative time, or length of hospitalization between patients who developed acute PJI and those who did not.
