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

Measurements of hip kinematics inherently depend on the coordinate system in which they are derived, yet the effect of the coordinate system definition on calculations of hip angles is not well-understood. Herein, hip angles calculated during dynamic activities were compared using coordinate systems described in the literature. In-vivo kinematic data of 24 participants (13 males) were analyzed during gait and the anterior impingement test using dual fluoroscopy and model-based tracking. Two coordinate systems for the pelvis (anterior pelvic plane, International Society of Biomechanics [ISB]) and three coordinate systems for the femur (table top plane with two definitions of the superior-inferior axis, ISB) were evaluated. Bony landmarks visible on computed tomography (CT) images were identified to establish each coordinate system and used as the basis to calculate differences in hip angles between coordinate system pairs. In the analysis during gait, the maximum differences derived from various coordinate system definitions were 6.7° ± 5.5° for flexion, 7.7° ± 2.1° for rotation, and 5.5° ± 0.7° for adduction. For the anterior impingement test, the differences were 8.1° ± 5.9°, 7.1° ± 1.2°, and 5.3° ± 0.7°, respectively. Landmark-based analysis using CT images could estimate these dynamic differences with errors less than 1.0°. Our results indicate that hip angles can be accurately transformed to angles calculated in different coordinate systems by accounting for the inherent bony anatomy. This information may aid in the interpretation of results across biomechanical studies of the hip.
