Three-dimensional morphological analysis and clinical application of ankle joint in Chinese population based on CT reconstruction.

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
purposeTo study the anatomical features of the ankle joint in Chinese northeast healthy adults and provide accurate data for the design of the total ankle arthroplasty (TAA) prosthesis.
methodsComputer tomography (CT) images from 156 healthy subjects, 86 males and 70 females, were collected and reconstructed through Mimics software. The 3D morphology of the distal tibia/fibula section and the whole talar was analyzed by measuring 28 parameters including maximal tibial thickness (MTiTh), anterior-posterior inclination angle, trochlea tali width (TaW), distal tibial width (TiW) and trochlea tali arc chode length (TaAL) and calculating MTiTh/TiW, TaAL/TaW. Gender difference and accuracy of CT images were evaluated. The measurements were compared with previously reported data from Caucasian subjects and Asian subjects. Statistical analysis was conducted by independent-samples t test through SPSS software.
results(1) Twenty two out of the 28 parameters were found significantly different between males and females. Most of the parameters in males were found larger than that in females (p < 0.05). (2) The difference was found larger in comparison with the Caucasian subject groups than that with Asian subject groups. (3) All the selected 11 parameters measured by CT images were found to be smaller than those by X-ray images (p < 0.05).
conclusionThe morphological parameters were found different between the Caucasian and Chinese northeast populations. Precise data of the ankle joint morphology were provided for the design and clinical application of TAA in the Chinese population.
