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

backgroundThis study is to describe the detailed design and surgical techniques of three-dimensional (3D)-printed custom-made endoprosthesis for hemipelvic tumorous bone defect.

methodsAccording to the pelvic tumor resection classification by Enneking and Dunham, the hemipelvis is divided into three zones including the ilium (P1), acetabulum (P2), and pubis and ischium (P3). Thirteen patients were included in this study. Of these, P1 and P2 were involved in three cases, while P1, P2, and P3 were involved in 10. Based on radiography data, 3D pelvic model was rebuilt, and virtual surgery was simulated. Different fixation methods were applied according to residual bone volume. Parameters of the first sacral (S

resultsOf 13 cases, after P1 resection, endoprostheses were fixed to sacra (8; 61.5%), ilia (3; 23.1%), and both (2; 15.4%). After P3 resection, endoprostheses were fixed to residual acetabulum (3; 23.1%), and residual pubis by stem (8; 61.5%) or "cap-like" structure (2; 15.4%). Mean area of the S

conclusionsThis study firstly presents detailed design and related surgical techniques of 3D-printed custom-made hemipelvic endoprosthesis reconstruction. Osseointegration is critical for long-term outcome and requires three design elements including interface connection, porous structure, and initial stability achieved by precise matching and proper fixation methods.
