Application of force-monitor ultrasonography to assess distal radioulnar joint instability in patients with triangular fibrocartilage complex injury.

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
Introduction: In this study, we evaluated the differences and measurement accuracy in the force-displacement relationship of the distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ) between patients with triangular fibrocartilage complex (TFCC) injury and healthy controls using force-monitor ultrasonography. Methods: This study included 11 TFCC injury patients and 22 healthy controls. We evaluated differences in the force-displacement relationship of the DRUJ in these patients using force-monitor ultrasonography. Cyclic compression was applied to the dorsal surface of the ulnar head. Distance between the dorsal surface of the distal radius and ulnar head at the DRUJ level was measured in the initial and pressed-down positions. Changes in radioulnar displacement, applied force, and displacement-to-force ratio were measured. Furthermore, we compared the parameters between the affected and unaffected wrists and between TFCC injury patients and controls. Results: The radioulnar displacement and displacement-to-force ratio were significantly larger in the affected wrists than in the unaffected wrists ( Conclusions: Assessing the DRUJ instability with force-monitor ultrasonography may help identify TFCC-injured wrists.
