Hip joint and age relationship in Thai population by image processing technique.

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
Bone age is a critical factor in personal identification, with the hip joint-encompassing the acetabulum and femoral head-commonly used in age estimation. Age assessments rely on factors such as bone porosity and morphological characteristics. These are currently conducted by experts and their conclusions can vary. The logistical challenge of transporting physical bones complicates the process. The increasing use of image processing techniques in the medical field provides a more efficient and convenient alternative. This study used image processing methods to analyze area ratios and percent porosity of the acetabulum and femoral head, with a statistical evaluation of the relationship between these parameters and age at a 90% confidence level (α=0.10). The dataset comprised images from 167 skeletons including 59 females aged 30 to 88 and 108 males aged 28 to 97. The analysis revealed a significant relationship between percent porosity and age in males, both in the acetabulum and femoral head, with
