ACETABULAR DYSPLASIA: The Acetabular Angle
Open accessAbstract
A simple method of measuring the degree of acetabular development in the radiograph of the adult pelvis is described and arguments for its validity are advanced. This measurement is referred to as the acetabular angle. The normal values for this angle are between 33 and 38 degrees. Angles below 32 degrees are uncommon and probably of no clinical significance, whereas angles from 39 to 42 degrees are in the upper limit of normality. An angle of 47 degrees is shown in a hip with congenital subluxation. The prognosis for hip joints with acetabular angles between 42 and 47 degrees is under investigation.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
