Densitometric analysis of the human calcaneus.
Article in Journal of anatomy, 1996. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
A densitometric study was performed on 50 dry calcanei to assess bone mineral density (BMD) in the constituent regions of the bone. In the lateral projection, the area with the highest BMD was the anterosuperior region, where the greatest concentration of trabeculae occurs. The areas with the least BMD were the intermediate or retrothalamic and the anteroinferior regions, where the neutral triangle is situated. In the dorsoplantar projection, a greater BMD was observed in the intermediate and middle regions, whereas the anterior region showed the lowest BMD. These results conform to the arrangement previously described for the trabecular system. It is concluded that bone densitometry, measured by dual x-ray absorptiometry, is useful for assessing trabecular architecture of the calcaneus.
