The primary ossification of the human fetal ischium: CT, digital-image analysis, and statistics.

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
purposesDetails concerning the normal growth of the pelvic girdle in the fetus are of importance in the early detection of congenital defects. This study was executed to quantitatively evaluate the primary ossification center of the ischium with relation to its linear, planar and volumetric parameters. MATERIALS AND
methodsUsing methods of CT, digital-image analysis, and statistics, geometrical dimensions of the ischium's primary ossification center in 42 spontaneously aborted human fetuses (21 ♂ and 21 ♀) aged 18-30 weeks were calculated.
resultsWith no sex and laterality differences, the best fit growth dynamics for the ischium's primary ossification center were displayed by the following functions: y = - 10.045 + 0.742 × age ± 0.013 (R
conclusionsNeither male-female nor right-left differences are found for any of the morphometric parameters of the ischium's primary ossification center. With relation to fetal ages in weeks, the ischium's primary ossification center grows proportionately in vertical and sagittal diameters, second-degree polynomially in projection surface area, and logarithmically in volume. The quantitative findings of the ischium's primary ossification center are considered age-specific reference data of relevance in the diagnostics of innate defects.
