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

aimsT

methodsA numerical FEM analysis was carried out by simulating the ankle joint (foot, and tibia) in order to investigating the stress shielding on the contact surfaces. The foot was constrained at the base while a load of 980 N was applied on the top of the tibia. The same setup was experimentally reproduced by introducing a high-resolution (Tekscan) pressure sensor between tibia and foot.

resultsResults evidenced a good agreement between numerical and experimental data, a percentage difference of 15% was evaluated on the equivalent Von Mises contact stress.

conclusionThe obtained results reveal interesting consequences deriving by taking into account how the stress shielding can influence the integrity and resistance of bones. The methods used for this validation enable formal comparison of computational and experimental results, and open the way for objective statistical measures of regional correlation between FE-computed contact stress distributions from comparison articular joint surfaces.
