Morphological Measurement of the Femoral Anterior Bow in Chinese Population Based on Three-Dimensional Computed Tomography.
Article in BioMed research international, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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 femoral anterior bow is an important factor in matching a femoral implant to a femur. However, its morphology in the Chinese population has rarely been reported. In this study, a three-dimensional measurement approach was adopted to provide accurate data. The aim was to supply a reference for designing a long-stemmed femoral prosthesis that is more suitable for Chinese people.
methodsComputed tomography data were collected from both lower limbs of 96 normal volunteers and reconstructed into a three-dimensional model using Mimics software. The parameters of the femoral anterior bow were measured using medical image analysis software. Statistical analysis was conducted using independent-samples and paired-samples
resultsAll the indexes showed significant sexual difference (
conclusionThe three-dimensional measurement approach adopted in this study is more convenient and accurate than previous conventional methods, with high repeatability. The morphological indexes of the femoral anterior bow in this research suggest that population characteristics should be taken into account. This study will provide references for the design of long-stemmed femoral prostheses in the Chinese population.
