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

Periprosthetic joint infections (PJIs) represent one of the most problematic complications following total joint replacement, with a significant impact on the patient's quality of life and healthcare costs. The early and accurate diagnosis of a PJI remains the key factor in the management of such cases. However, with traditional diagnostic measures and risk assessment tools, the early identification of a PJI may not always be adequate. Artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms have been integrated in most technological domains, with recent integration into healthcare, providing promising applications due to their capability of analyzing vast and complex datasets. With the development and implementation of AI algorithms, the assessment of risk factors and the prediction of certain complications have become more efficient. This review aims to not only provide an overview of the current use of AI in predicting PJIs, the exploration of the types of algorithms used, and the performance metrics reported, but also the limitations and challenges that come with implementing such tools in clinical practice.
