MRI-based mechanical competence assessment of bone using micro finite element analysis (micro-FEA): Review.
Review in Magnetic resonance imaging, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Areal bone mineral density (aBMD) from dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) and volumetric bone mineral density (vBMD) have demonstrated limited capabilities in the evaluation of bone mechanical competence and prediction of bone fracture. Predicting the macroscopic mechanical behavior of the bone structure has been challenging because of the heterogeneous and anisotropic nature of bone, such as the dependencies on loading direction, anatomical location, and sample dimensions. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has been introduced as a promising modality that can be coupled with finite element analysis (FEA) for the assessment of bone mechanical competence. This review article describes studies investigating MRI-based micro-FEA as a potential non-invasive method to predict bone mechanical competence and facilitate bone fracture risk estimation without exposure to ionizing radiation. Specifically, the steps, applications, and future potential of FEA using indirect and direct bone imaging are discussed.
