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

Screw insertion torque is a widely used/effective method for quantifying fixation strength in orthopedic implant research for different screw geometries, implantation sites, and loads. This work reports the construction of an open-source instrumented benchtop screw insertion device for a total cost of $7545 ($492 + $7053 for equipped sensors), as well as validation of the device and an example use-application. The insertion device is capable of recording the axial load, rotational speed, and applied torque throughout the screw insertion process at 10 samples per second, as demonstrated in the validation test. For this combination of bone analog (20 PCF Sawbones©), screw, and loading, the resolution of the torque sensor was 25% of the maximum measured torque; a different model torque sensor would be required to meet ASTM F543-17, which specifies a resolution of 10% of the maximum torque. This system is optimized for fastener insertion at speeds of 120 rpm or less and axial loading up to 50 N.
