Biomechanical models: key considerations in study design.
Article in OTA international : the open access journal of orthopaedic trauma, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 16 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
This manuscript summarizes presentations of a symposium on key considerations in design of biomechanical models at the 2019 Basic Science Focus Forum of the Orthopaedic Trauma Association. The first section outlines the most important characteristics of a high-quality biomechanical study. The second section considers choices associated with designing experiments using finite element modeling versus synthetic bones versus human specimens. The third section discusses appropriate selection of experimental protocols and finite element analyses. The fourth section considers the pros and cons of use of biomechanical research for implant design. Finally, the fifth section examines how results from biomechanical studies can be used when clinical evidence is lacking or contradictory. When taken together, these presentations emphasize the critical importance of biomechanical research and the need to carefully consider and optimize models when designing a biomechanical study.
