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

It is of great interest to delineate the effect of orientation distribution of mineral crystals on the bulk mechanical behavior of bone. Using a unique synergistic approach combining a progressive loading scheme and synchrotron X-ray scattering techniques, human cortical bone specimens were tested in compression to examine the in situ mechanical behavior of mineral crystals aligned in different orientations. The orientation distribution was quantitatively estimated by measuring the X-ray diffraction intensity from the (002) plane in mineral crystals. In addition, the average longitudinal (c-axis), transverse (a-axis), and shear strains of the subset of mineral crystals aligned in each orientation were determined by measuring the lattice deformation normal to three distinct crystallographic planes (i.e. 002, 310, and 213) in the crystals. The experimental results indicated that the in situ strain and stress of mineral crystals varied with orientations. The normal strain and stress in the longitudinally aligned mineral crystals were markedly greater than those in the transversely oriented crystals, whereas the shear stress reached a maximum for the crystals aligned in ±30° with respect to the loading direction. The maximum principal strain and stress were observed in the mineral crystals oriented along the loading axis, with a similar trend observed in the maximum shear strain and stress. By examining the in situ behavior, the contribution of mineral crystals to load bearing and the bulk behavior of bone are discussed.
