[Septic musculoskeletal complications under immunomodulating treatment].
Review in Zeitschrift fur Rheumatologie, 2025. 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
Infections are an important cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with inflammatory rheumatic diseases. Among these, musculoskeletal infections represent a relevant proportion as patients with rheumatoid arthritis face an increased risk of developing septic arthritis and prosthesis infections. The causes are multifactorial. In addition to immunosuppressive treatment, risk factors of infection in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients include repeated intra-articular joint punctures, an increased rate of joint replacement surgery, damaged joint structure and comorbidities. The use of glucocorticoids and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) inhibitors, especially in the first 6 months of treatment, increase the risk of septic arthritis and periprosthetic joint infections. In addition, an increased disease activity could also be identified as a risk factor. Under immunosuppressive therapy rare pathogens such as Candida and mycobacteria can cause the infection and should be considered when there is a lack of clinical response to antibiotic treatment.
