Supratrochlear Rim is Correlated with Isolated Patellar Chondromalacia on Magnetic Resonance Imaging of the Knee.

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
Purpose: To investigate the relationship between the supratrochlear rim and isolated patellar chondromalacia (PC) using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans of the knee. Methods: Patients without patellofemoral pain (control group) and patients with patellofemoral pain and diagnosed with stage III or IV PC based on MRI (defect group) were retrospectively identified. Patients with a history of patellar subluxation were excluded. We used patient MRI scans to perform 20 anatomical measurements of the patellofemoral joint. We also performed 2 measurements of the anterior femoral curvature. A total of 30 patients (29 ± 8.7 years) were in the control group, and 20 patients were in the defect group (29.4 ± 9.7 years). Results: The maximum curvature ( Conclusions: In this Level III prognostic, case-control study, we have shown through MRI knee measurements that the isolated patellar chondromalacia in patients without a history of patellar subluxation and dislocation is correlated with the increased anterior femoral curvature in combination with patella alta.
