Mobility and anthropometry of the sacroiliac joint: range of motion and morphological characteristics.

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: The sacroiliac joint (SIJ), a synovial joint with irregular surfaces, is crucial for stabilizing the body and facilitating daily activities. However, recent studies have reported that 15-30% of lower back pain can be attributed to instability in the SIJ, a condition collectively referred to as sacroiliac joint dysfunction (SIJD). The aim of this study is to investigate how the morphological characteristics of the auricular surface may influence the SIJ range of motion (ROM) and to examine differences in SIJ ROM between females and males, thereby contributing to the enhancement of SIJD diagnosis and treatment. Methods: We measured SIJ ROM using motion-analysis cameras in 24 fresh cadavers of Korean adults (13 males and 11 females). Using three-dimensional renderings of the measured auricular surface, we investigated the correlations between the morphological characteristics of the auricular surface and the ROM of the SIJ. Results: The SIJ ROM was between 0.2° and 6.7° and was significantly greater in females (3.58° ± 1.49) compared with males (1.38° ± 1.00). Dividing the participants into high-motion (3.87° ± 1.19) and low-motion (1.13° ± 0.62) groups based on the mean ROM (2.39°) showed no significant differences in any measurements. Additionally, bone defects around the SIJ were identified using computed tomography of the high-motion group. In the low-motion group, calcification between auricular surfaces and bone bridges was observed. Conclusion: This suggests that the SIJ ROM is influenced more by the anatomical structures around the SIJ than by the morphological characteristics of the auricular surface.
