The Efficacy of Body Mass Index and Total Body Fat Percent in Diagnosis Obesity according to Menopausal Status.

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
objectivesBody mass index (BMI) is commonly used in epidemiological study or clinical center. However, it is not exactly correlated with body fat composition and does not reflect sex, age, or race. The aim of this article is to evaluate the validity of BMI standards relative to total body fat (TBF) and to estimate new BMI criteria that correspond to TBF for obesity, especially for Asian postmenopausal women.
methodsA total 3,936 patients were included in this cross-sectional study, including 1,565 premenopausal and 2,371 postmenopausal women. At the time of visit, demographic data were collected. We demonstrated the validity of BMI cut-point of 25 kg/m
resultsBMI-defined obesity (≥ 25 kg/m
conclusionsWe proposed new BMI criteria for obesity by using TBF reference. With application of bioelectrical impedance analysis, the diagnosis of obesity using BMI criteria may differ between premenopausal and postmenopausal women.
