1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

The soft tissues of residual limb amputees are subject to large volume fluctuations over the course of a day. Volume fluctuations in residual limbs can lead to local pressure marks, causing discomfort, pain and rejection of prostheses. Existing methods for measuring interface stress encounter several limitations. A major problem is that the measurement instrumentation is applied in the sensitive interface between the prosthesis and residual limb. This paper presents the principle investigation of a non-intrusive technique to evaluate the fit of orthopaedic prosthesis sockets in transfemoral amputees based on experimentally obtained vibrational data. The proposed approach is based on changes in the dynamical behaviour detectable at the outer surface of prostheses; thus, the described interface is not affected. Based on the experimental investigations shown and the derived results, it can be concluded that structural dynamic measurements are a promising non-intrusive technique to evaluate the fit of orthopaedic prosthesis sockets in transfemoral amputee patients. The obtained resonance frequency changes of 2% are a good indicator of successful applicabilityas these changes can be detected without the need for complex measurement devices.
