Automated Web Tool Measurement of Total Hip Arthroplasty Acetabular Component Inclination and Anteversion Angles.

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
Background: Periprosthetic hip dislocation after total hip arthroplasty is a devastating postoperative complication. It is often associated with suboptimal orientation of the acetabular component, characterized by the acetabular abduction and anteversion angles obtained from anteroposterior pelvic radiographs. We introduce a novel automated web tool to streamline the subjective and lengthy process of this manual measurement and compare it to manual human measurements. Methods: One board-certified orthopaedic surgeon used the web tool to make automatic measurements of anteroposterior radiographs of 97 patients who underwent unilateral hip arthroplasty. Manual and web tool measurements included abduction angle and calculated anteversion angle by Liaw's method. Differences between manual and web tool measurements were compared with a paired Results: There were no statistically significant differences between the average of manual measurements as compared to the web tool measurement in abduction angle (43.29 ± 7.05 vs 43.00 + 6.22, Conclusions: Automated measurements obtained with a novel web tool are in strong agreement with the manually obtained ground truth measurements. The web tool helps to eliminate interobserver differences that arise with manual annotation. The web tool has the potential to streamline acetabular measurements with enhanced accuracy.
