Scoliocorrector Fatma-UI for correction of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis: Development, effectivity, safety and functional outcome.
Trial report in World journal of orthopedics, 2024. 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
backgroundAdolescent idiopathic scoliosis remains a major problem due to its high incidence, high risk, and high cost. One of the aims of the management in scoliosis is to correct the deformity. Many techniques are available to correct scoliosis deformity; however, they are all far from ideal to achieve three-dimensional correction in scoliosis.
aimTo develop a set of tools named Scoliocorrector Fatma-UI (SCFUI) to aid three-dimensional correction and to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and functional outcome.
methodsThis study consists of two stages. In the first stage, we developed the SCFUI and tested it in finite element and biomechanical tests. The second stage was a single-blinded randomized clinical trial to evaluate the SCFUI compared to direct vertebral rotation (DVR). Forty-four subjects with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis were randomly allocated into the DVR group (
resultsFinite element revealed the maximum stress of the SCFUI components to be between 31.2 - 252 MPa. Biomechanical analysis revealed the modulus elasticity of SCFUI was 9561324 ± 633277 MPa. Both groups showed improvement in Cobb angle and sagittal profile, however the rotation angle was lower in the SCFUI group (11.59 ± 7.46
conclusionWe concluded that SCFUI developed in this study resulted in similar coronal and sagittal but better rotational correction compared to DVR. The safety and functional outcomes were also similar to DVR.
