Signal intensity alteration and maximal area of pericruciate fat pad are associated with incident radiographic osteoarthritis: data from the Osteoarthritis Initiative.

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
objectiveTo determine whether pericruciate fat pad (PCFP) signal intensity alteration and maximal area are associated with incident radiographic osteoarthritis (ROA) over 4 years in the Osteoarthritis Initiative (OAI) study.
methodsParticipants were from the Osteoarthritis Initiative (OAI) study. Case knees (n = 355) were defined by incident ROA between 12 and 48 months visits and were matched by sex, age, and radiographic status with control knees (n = 355). Magnetic resonance images (MRIs) were used to assess PCFP signal intensity alteration and PCFP maximal area at P0 (time of onset of ROA), P-1 (1 year prior to P0), and baseline. Conditional logistic regression analyses were applied to assess associations between PCFP measures and the risk of incident ROA.
resultsThe mean age of participants was 60.1 years and 66.9% were women. In multivariable analyses, PCFP signal intensity alteration measured at three time points (OR [95%CI]: 1.28 [1.10-1.50], 1.52 [1.30-1.78], 1.50 [1.27-1.76], respectively) and PCFP maximal area (OR [95%CI]: 1.21 [1.03-1.42], 1.27 [1.07-1.52], 1.37 [1.15-1.62], respectively) were significantly associated with incident ROA.
conclusionsPCFP signal intensity alteration and maximal area were associated with incident ROA over 4 years, implying that they may have roles to play in ROA. KEY POINTS: • Pericruciate fat pad signal intensity alteration and maximal area were associated with incident ROA, implying that they may have roles to play in ROA.
