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.

Abstract

Sarcopenia is a common problem among the elderly worldwide. Muscle mass can decrease with aging and decreased physical activity may occur. However, the sarcopenia prevalence among community dwelling older adults living in snow-covered cities remains largely unknown. Therefore, we evaluated the prevalence of and risk factors for sarcopenia in this population aged 65 years or older according to the definitions and diagnoses of the European Working Group on Sarcopenia in Older People-2 from two welfare centers in Sapporo, Hokkaido, Japan. The demographic characteristics, nutrition, and depression status of 310 participants were assessed using a standardized questionnaire. All participants were assessed for grip strength. Skeletal muscle index, body mass index (BMI), and total body water (TBW) were measured using bioelectrical impedance analysis. The overall sarcopenia prevalence in the study population was 8.1%. Multivariate analysis revealed that diabetes and taking more than four drugs per day were independently associated with sarcopenia (adjusted odds ratio (OR) = 3.66, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.06⁻12.61; OR = 2.66, CI = 1.05⁻6.77, respectively). BMI and TBW were negatively associated with sarcopenia. Sarcopenia prevalence was low in community dwelling older adults living in the snow-covered city. It is indicated that welfare center exercise may be a good intervention for the prevention of sarcopenia. Moreover, the management of diabetes, medication, and nutrition is necessary for sarcopenia prevention in community dwelling older adults.
