3D High-Frequency Ultrasound Imaging of Cartilage-Bone Interface Compared with Micro-CT.
Article in BioMed research international, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Cartilage-bone interface (CBI) is a complex structure which bears important information in pathophysiology of osteoarthritis (OA). While high-frequency ultrasound (US) has been widely used for the investigation of articular cartilage, 3D imaging of CBI using US is less commonly reported in this field. Here, we adopted a 3D high-frequency ultrasound imaging approach specifically for the investigation of CBI in human knee samples. Fifteen osteochondral disks from the tibial plateau of seven OA patients were prepared in vitro and scanned using both high-frequency US and micro-CT imaging. The 3D morphology of the tidemark was reconstructed and compared using an image registration approach between the two imaging modalities. Results showed that the 3D tidemark could be well registered between the two imaging methods with a mean surface discrepancy of 33.2 ± 9.9
