Anatomical position of the corona mortis relative to the anteroposterior and inlet views.

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
purposeAlthough pubic ramus fractures are common in the elderly, resultant hemodynamic instability is a rare complication. The corona mortis, a vascular anastomosis between the obturator vessels and the external iliac vessels in the retropubic space, is occasionally damaged by fractures of the pubic ramus, causing significant hemorrhage. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the incidence and anatomical position of the corona mortis on the anteroposterior and inlet views.
methodsSixty-one cadavers (122 hemipelvizes) were dissected and the incidence of the corona mortis was evaluated. Photographs were then taken simulating anteroposterior and inlet radiographs, and labeled as the anteroposterior and inlet views. The distance from the pubic symphysis to the corona mortis was measured on each of the two views.
resultsThe corona mortis was present in 76.1% of hemipelvizes. The corona mortis traverses along the periosteum of the dorsal surface of the pubis. The incidence of arterial corona mortis was 28.3% and that of venous corona mortis was 76.1%. The distance from the superior margin of the symphysis pubis to the corona mortis measured 47.7 ± 9.9 (45.9-49.6) mm on the anteroposterior view, and 59.4 ± 9.2 (57.3-61.5) mm on the inlet view.
conclusionsIn order to predict possible hemodynamic instability of the corona mortis following pubic ramus fractures, it is of clinical significance to precisely establish the anatomical position of the corona mortis on the anteroposterior and inlet views.
