Appropriate sites for the measurement of the cross-sectional area of the gluteus maximus and the gluteus medius muscles in patients with hip osteoarthritis.
Article in Surgical and radiologic anatomy : SRA, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
purposeTo evaluate the relationship between the volume, cross-sectional area, and peak isometric muscle strength of the gluteus maximus and gluteus medius muscles in patients with hip osteoarthritis, and to use this information to identify effective sites for measurement of the cross-sectional area of these muscles.
methodsTwenty-four patients with hip osteoarthritis were included. The muscle cross-sectional area and volume were calculated from magnetic resonance images. The cross-sectional area was calculated at three levels: the inferior point of the sacroiliac joint, just above the femoral head, and at the greatest muscle diameter. Peak isometric strength was assessed using hand-held dynamometry, using the extension and external rotation for the gluteus maximus and abduction and internal rotation for the gluteus medius. Measured outcomes were compared between the two muscles, and the association between muscle volume, cross-sectional area, and peak isometric muscle strength was evaluated using Pearson's correlation.
resultsVolume was correlated with the cross-sectional area in the gluteus maximus (r ≥ 0.707) and with the cross-sectional area (r ≥ 0.637) and peak isometric strength (r ≥ 0.477) in the gluteus medius. There was no difference between the cross-sectional area measured at the greatest muscle diameter and just above the femoral head (p = 0.503) for the gluteus maximus and at the inferior point of the sacroiliac joint (p = 0.651) for the gluteus medius.
conclusionThe cross-sectional area, when used to calculate the muscle volume, should be evaluated just above the femoral head for the gluteus maximus and at the inferior point of the sacroiliac joint for the gluteus medius.
