Acetabular posterior wall morphology. A CT-based method to distinguish two acetabular posterior wall types.
Article in Journal of orthopaedics. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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 anatomy of the posterior wall of the acetabulum is important for the hip stability. We wanted to know whether differences can be observed. MATERIAL AND
methodsOn lateral 3D pelvic CT reconstruction of the pelvis two types were identified. On axial CT-images acetabular angles were determined.
resultsWe observed 35 type I acetabular and 61 type II acetabular. Posterior acetabular sector angle was 114° in type I and 94° in type II acetabular (p < 0.01). At an cut-off angle of 100° we could predict the type of acetabulum.
conclusionsWe could describe reference values for the posterior wall to distinguish two morphological types.
