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

purposeLegg Calve Perthes disease (LCPD) is a paediatric hip disorder caused by ischemia of the femoral epiphysis, causing femoral head deformity when untreated. This study aims to determine if previously validated pelvic obliquity radiographic parameters, used for assessing acetabular retroversion in developmental dysplasia of the hip, are applicable to patients with LCPD and its prognostic value.

methodA retrospective study of patients with Legg Calve Perthes disease was carried out, analysing 4 pelvic parameters: Ilioischial Angle, Obturator Index, Sharp's Angle and Acetabular Depth-Width Ratio (ADR). The differences between healthy and affected hips were studied, and subsequently, it was assessed whether these parameters have prognostic value in the disease outcome.

resultsStatistically significant differences have been obtained in the ilioischial angle, obturator index and ADR, between the affected and healthy hip. However, only the Acetabular Depth-Width Ratio showed predictive value for the disease outcome.

conclusionAlthough this study revealed differences in pelvic parameters between healthy and diseased hips, with only the ADR showing statistical significance in the disease's evolution and prognosis, further studies with larger sample sizes are necessary.
