Radiological measurement parameters of distal radius and wrist measured on X-rays in the Turkish population.
Article in Northern clinics of Istanbul, 2023. 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
objectiveThe aim of our study was to analyze the radiologic morphometry of the distal radius and wrist to assess acceptable limits for restoring normal wrist function after fracture.
methodsRadiological measurement parameters were measured retrospectively on anteroposterior and lateral (LAT) wrist radiographs (n=981). Radiological measurement parameters were volar tilt, radial inclination, radial height, ulnar variance, radiocarpal angle, and volar angulation angle. The patients' age, gender, and side of the radiograph were recorded as demographic data.
resultsThe mean volar tilt angle was 15.4±4.3 degrees. The mean radial inclination angle in males was 26.8±3.6 degrees. The mean radial height was 13.6±2.1 mm. The mean ulnar variance was 0.8±1.9 mm. One hundred and eighty-nine patients had negative ulnar variances. The mean radiocarpal angle was 12.3±2.7. The mean volar angulation angle was 32.1±6.9 degrees. Radial height was found to be positively correlated with radial inclination (p<0.001; r: 601), but it was not significantly correlated with ulnar variance (p=0.14).
conclusionDistal radius fractures are one of the most common types of fractures. Radiological measurement parameters were used in the determination and follow-up of the treatment. The values obtained in this study belong to the Turkish population. These values may be used as reference values in determining the quality of reduction after fracture and in the design of suitable implants for fracture treatment.
