Relationship between advanced glycation end-product accumulation in the skin and pulmonary function.
Article in Journal of physical therapy science, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
. [Purpose] This study aimed to evaluate the relationship between advanced glycation end-product accumulation and pulmonary function in a general population with normal spirometry results. [Subjects and Methods] A total of 201 subjects (mean age, 56 ± 11 years; males, 58%) enrolled in this study. Subjects were classified into two groups (younger group [<65 years old] and elderly group [≥65 years old]). Skin autofluorescence was assessed as an estimate of advanced glycation end-product. Forced vital capacity and forced expiratory volume in one second were measured using a spirometer, and the forced expiratory volume in one second/forced vital capacity ratio (FEV1/FVC) was calculated. [Results] Skin autofluorescence was not an independent factor associated with FEV1/FVC in the younger group, but both skin autofluorescence and pack-years of smoking were significant independent factors associated with FEV1/FVC in the elderly group. [Conclusion] Advanced glycation end-product accumulation, assessed by skin autofluorescence, is an independent factor negatively associated with FEV1/FVC in elderly people with normal spirometry results.
