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

Objectives: This study aimed to objectively define whether human hexapod fixation (Maxframe), with or without the use of 3D-printed positioning guides, can correct a canine antebrachial deformity with greater accuracy than the clinically established techniques of 3D patient-specific osteotomy and reduction guides (3D-PSORG) or hinged circular external skeletal fixation (CESF). Methods: CT of a canine antebrachium was manipulated to induce distal radial deformity of the valgus, external torsion, and procurvatum, each of magnitude 20 Results: No construct returned the distal bone segment to its preoperative position in all planes. Translational malalignment in the sagittal plane had the highest magnitude of error for all constructs, with the Maxframe standard protocol showing the greatest error. Maxframe (PSPGs) showed the minimum error of all constructs in the frontal and sagittal planes. Clinical significance: In this 3D-printed model of antebrachial deformity correction, the hexapod frame with the use of PSPGs achieved better accuracy than 3D-PSORG and hinged CESF and may be a technique of future interest and development in the management of canine antebrachial limb deformity.
