Automated personalization of biomechanical knee model.
Article in International journal of computer assisted radiology and surgery, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
purposePatient-specific biomechanical models of the knee joint can effectively aid in understanding the reasons for pathologies and improve diagnostic methods and treatment procedures. For deeper research of knee diseases, the development of biomechanical models with appropriate configurations is essential. In this study, we mainly focus on the development of a personalized biomechanical model for the investigation of knee joint pathologies related to patellar motion using automated methods.
methodsThis study presents a biomechanical model created for patellar motion pathologies research and some techniques for automating the generation of the biomechanical model. To generate geometric models of bones, the U-Net neural network was adapted for 3D input datasets. The method uses the same neural network for segmentation of femur, tibia, patella and fibula. The total size of the train/validation (75/25%) dataset is 18,183 3D volumes of size
resultsThe neural network for bones segmentation achieves mean DICE 0.9838. A biomechanical model for realistic simulation of patellar movement within the trochlear groove was proposed. Generation of personalized biomechanical models was automated.
conclusionsIn this paper, we have implemented a neural network for the segmentation of 3D CT scans of the knee joint to produce a biomechanical model for the study of knee cap motion pathologies. Most stages of the generation process have been automated and can be used to generate patient-specific models.
