Precision errors and least significant changes in paediatric forearm measurements of bone density, mass, dimensions, mechanostat parameters and soft tissue composition by Stratec XCT-2000L.
Article in Journal of musculoskeletal & neuronal interactions, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
objectivesThe peripheral quantitative computed tomography (pQCT) is gaining popularity in the field of paediatric densitometry, however, very little is known about the precision errors of this method in diseased children. The aim of the study was to evaluate the precision errors of bone density, mass, dimensions, strength, mechanostat parameters and soft tissue at the forearm in diseased children.
methodsStratec XCT 2000L apparatus was used. The measurement sites were 4% and 66% of the forearm length. The study group consisted of 60 patients (31 girls) aged 5,7-18,0 yrs.
resultsWe observed week relationships between precision errors and body size with r from -0,37 to 0,28. Relative precision errors (CV%
conclusionPresented study reveal pQCT method at the forearm in diseased children as relatively precise technique. The results may help with planning and interpretation of pQCT studies in diseased children.
