Arc center distance as a novel quantitative radiographic parameter for volar Barton fractures.

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
purposeThe aims of this study were to investigate conventional radiographic parameters and introduce a novel parameter (arc center distance, ACD) for volar Barton fractures.
methodsTwenty-four cases of volar Barton fracture were retrospectively analyzed. We measured volar tilt angle (VTA), anteroposterior distance (APD), teardrop angle (TDA), and capitate-to-axis-of-radius distance (CARD) on lateral plain radiographs. The ACD was measured on the sagittal images of computed tomography scans. VTAs, APDs, TDAs, and CARDs were compared between the fractured and normal contralateral wrist. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve was calculated for each parameter.
resultsTDAs did not differ significantly between the fractured wrists and the controls. On the other hand, VTAs, APDs, and CARDs were all significantly greater in the fractured wrists (mean values were 17.25°, 20.70 mm, and - 3.40 mm, respectively). The area under the curve value was highest (0.943) for the ACD. When a cutoff value of 1.02 mm was used as a threshold, a sensitivity of 100% and specificity of 80.95% were achieved.
conclusionsThe mean values of conventional parameters (VTA, APD, TDA and CARD) in volar Barton fractures were presented. The ACD can be useful parameter for quantitatively evaluating volar Barton fractures.
