Computed Tomography Assessment of Healthy Elbow Joint Congruity in Dogs Being Affected by Pronation and Supination Angulation: A Cadaveric Study.

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
The aim of this study was to determine the influence of limb positioning on computed tomographic (CT) measurement of radio-ulnar incongruity (RUI) in canines. The sample population was comprised of twenty thoracic limbs harvested from ten adult canine cadaveric specimens of medium-size breeds without concurrent orthopedic disease. CT scans of each elbow were performed using two different flexion angles (90° and 135°) in combination with five different supination and pronation angles (-35°, -15°, 0°, 15° and 35°). The limbs were aligned using a custom-made fixation device. For each scan, RUI was measured at the apex (AMC) and base (BMC) of the ulnar medial coronoid process and compared with each elbow joint in the study. As the values followed a normal distribution and the one-factorial analysis of variance produced a significant result, a Dunnett post hoc test was performed to compare the individual test conditions pairwise for significant differences. The results show no significant differences in the measurement of RUI between 90° and 135° of elbow flexion. The RUI measured at the AMC showed significant maximum deviations (
