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

Purpose: To compare the reliability and accuracy of radiographic measurements obtained from 2-dimensional (2D) radiographs and 3-dimensional (3D)-reconstructed computed tomography (CT) images in the assessment of femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS). Methods: Consecutive patients with FAIS from January 2018 to December 2020 were identified and included in this study. Two fellowship-trained surgeons and 2 fellows performed blinded radiographic measurements. Lateral center-edge angle (LCEA) and Tönnis angles were measured on anteroposterior pelvic radiographs, and alpha angles were measured on frog lateral radiographs. Reliability coefficients for individual measurement accuracy were performed using the Cronbach alpha and intra- and inter-rater intraclass correlation coefficients (ICCs). Composite measurements for LCEA, Tönnis angle, and alpha angle were compared with the corresponding 3D value using paired sample Results: Fifty-three patients with FAIS with standardized 2D radiographic and 3D-reconstructed CT imaging were included. All reliability metrics met thresholds for internal reliability. Inter-rater ICCs for LCEA, Tönnis angle, and alpha angle were (0.928, 0.888, 0.857, all Conclusions: The use of 2D radiographs alone for preoperative planning of FAIS may lead to inaccuracies in radiographic measurements. Level of Evidence: Level, III retrospective cohort study.
