Measurement of the femoral neck anteversion angle using a three-dimensional reconstruction in the fixed coordinate system based on the basal anterior cortex of the femoral neck: an observational 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
purposeThis study investigated the accessibility of 3D reconstruction in the fixed coordinate system(3D-R-FCS) based on the basal anterior cortex of the femoral neck in measuring the femoral neck anteversion angle (FNAA).
methodsCT and EOS examinations were performed on 40 femoral samples synthesized by Sawbone. Two evaluators were responsible for measurement of the FNAA based on four different methods, including EOS 3D reconstruction, 3D-R-FCS, Reikerås, and Murphy methods.
resultsMeasurement of the FNAA based on EOS, 3D-R-FCS based on the basal anterior cortex of the femoral neck, and the Reikerås and Murphy methods were 6.53°±4.28°, 7.08°±4.58°, 3.03°±4.44°, and 11.9°±4.91°, respectively. No statistical difference was detected for the FNAA measurements between EOS and the 3D-R-FCS based on the basal anterior cortex of the femoral neck (P > 0.05). However, a statistical difference was detected between the Reikerås and Murphy methods and EOS (P < 0.05). The value of the intraclass correlation coefficients (ICCs) for the 4 methods measured by evaluator A were 0.89, 0.99, 0.75, and 0.81, respectively, while the ICCs measured by evaluator B were 0.91, 0.98, 0.71, and 0.79, respectively. The correlation coefficients between the two evaluators were 0.89, 0.99, 0.75, and 0.83, respectively.
conclusionThe consistency of the scores for the FNAA measurement based on the 3D-R-FCS within and between the evaluators was the highest among the four methods and correlated well with the EOS measurement, which may potentially provide a more stable method for the measurement in clinical practice.
