1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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 material properties of bone in the skull are known to be heterogeneous and orthotropic, although datasets detailing these properties on a species level are limited. Therefore, computational modelling frequently uses homogeneous, isotropic material properties to analyse stresses/strains in the skull. However, it is often unknown how the choice of bone/s from which the elastic modulus is measured, or the direction in which it is measured, influences predicted stresses/strains. This study integrated imaging and measured muscle properties to create a subject-specific finite element model of a rabbit (
