The ratio of femoral head diameter to pelvic height in the normal hips of a Chinese population.

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
objectiveThe aim of this study was to determine whether the ratio between the femoral head diameter and pelvic height in a Chinese population is the same as that found in Westerners. MATERIALS AND
methodsStandard pelvic radiography was performed on a group of 187 Chinese adult subjects consisting of 81 males and 106 females with a mean age of 40 years (21-68 years). Femoral head diameter (vertical distance from the femoral head-neck junction to the highest point of the femoral head) and pelvic height (vertical distance from the highest point of the iliac crest to the edge of the ischial tuberosities) were measured.
resultsThere were significant differences between males and females (p < 0.001), and between persons of high height versus low height (p = 0.011) and medium height (p = 0.039). There were no significant differences between persons of different age (p = 0.244), body mass index (p = 0.091), or between persons of low- and medium-height groups (p = 0.69). The overall mean ratio between the femoral head diameter and pelvic height was 0.215 (0.173-0.249) with a 95 % CI = 0.214-0.217. The mean ratios in males and females were 0.221 (0.194-0.249) and 0.211 (0.173-0.238), respectively.
conclusionThe mean ratio in Chinese population was similar to the reported ratio in a western population (about 1:5). We suggest that Chinese surgeons may be able to use the Crowe classification to classify patients with hip dysplasia.
