Regional Distribution of Stress on the Distal Femur in Advanced Osteoarthritis.
Article in Journal of bone metabolism, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundThe aim of this study was to analyze regional differences in the stress distribution within the distal femur in advanced osteoarthritis (OA).
methodsDistal femoral specimens with primary OA were obtained from 10 female donor cadavers (mean age, 65 years; range, 53-79). As controls, distal femurs without OA were obtained from 10 age- and sex-matched female cadavers (mean age, 67 years; range, 58-81). The articular surface of the distal femur was divided into anterior, middle, and posterior regions on each condyle. Mechanical properties and microstructure were assessed for each region with micro-computed tomography and finite element model analysis.
resultsThe control group showed differences in stress distribution among 6 regions on the distal femur (
conclusionsRegional stress distribution in the distal femur was different between advanced OA and normal groups. There were no regional differences in stress distribution in the advanced OA group. Altered loading patterns, bone remodeling, and chemical composition will affect stress distribution.
