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

backgroundBoth-column fracture is a common type of acetabular fracture and is sometimes accompanied by a comminuted fracture of the quadrilateral area. Such fractures are difficult to anatomically reduce and securely fix. In this study, the authors compared the application value and mechanical properties of the Bespoke 3D-printed titanium alloy plates and Union Plate in acetabular both-column fractures.

methodsA both-column fracture model of the acetabulum was established, and the Bespoke 3D-printed titanium alloy plates, Union Plate and a common reconstruction plate were used for fixation. External loads were applied to the model at different angles, and the effects on the plates and the stress and displacement of the screws were determined.

resultsUnder different states of hip joint activity, the maximum stress experienced by the Bespoke 3D-printed titanium alloy plates and Union Plate was significantly smaller than the maximum stress experienced by the common reconstruction plate. The Bespoke 3D-printed titanium alloy plates experienced the lowest maximum stress under different hip joint motions. There was no statistically significant difference between the maximum displacement of the Bespoke 3D-printed titanium alloy plates and Union Plate and that of the common reconstructed plate.

conclusionsThe design of the Bespoke 3D-printed titanium alloy plates imparts a smaller maximum stress and better mechanical properties when repairing acetabular both-column fractures.
