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

Our objective was to identify precise mechanical metrics of the proximal tibia which differentiated OA and normal knees. We developed subject-specific FE models for 14 participants (7 OA, 7 normal) who were imaged three times each for assessing precision (repeatability). We assessed various mechanical metrics (minimum principal and von Mises stress and strain as well as structural stiffness) across the proximal tibia for each subject. In vivo precision of these mechanical metrics was assessed using CV%
