Understanding recurrent groin pain following periacetabular osteotomy: assessment of psoas tendon mechanics using discrete element analysis.

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
Recurrent groin pain following periacetabular osteotomy (PAO) is a challenging problem. The purpose of our study was to evaluate the position and dynamics of the psoas tendon as a potential cause for recurrent groin pain following PAO. A total of 386 PAO procedures, performed between January 2013 and January 2020, were identified from a single surgeon series. Thirteen patients (18 hips) had a psoas tendinopathy, as confirmed with relief of symptoms following a diagnostic injection into the psoas tendon. All patients underwent computed tomography (CT) scans pre- and post-operatively. The data from CT scan was used to manually segment bony structures and create 3D models using Mimics software (Materialise NV). A validated discrete element analysis model using rigid body springs was used to predict psoas tendon movement during hip circumduction and walking. The distance of the iliopsoas tendon to any bony abnormality was calculated. All computational analyses were performed using MATLAB software. Thirteen hips (13/18) showed bony malformations (spurs, hypertrophic callus or delayed union and malunion) secondary to callus at the superior pubic ramus. The mean minimal distance of the iliopsoas tendon to osteotomy site was found to be 13.73 mm (
