Handgrip measurement as a useful benchmark for locomotive syndrome in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus: A KAMOGAWA-DM cohort study.
Article in Journal of diabetes investigation, 2020. 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
AIMS/
introductionTo carry out a cross-sectional single-center study in a Japanese hospital to determine the diagnostic value of handgrip measurement to detect locomotive syndrome (LS). MATERIALS AND
methodsConsecutive outpatients underwent an LS risk test, which comprised a stand-up test and a two-step test, and a handgrip measurement, along with general diabetes-related tests. We calculated the prevalence of LS, and evaluated the association between handgrip strength and LS.
resultsWe enrolled 234 patients in this study. The prevalence of LS in the stand-up and two-step tests was 51.5 and 79.0%, respectively. The prevalence of LS in the stand-up or two-step tests increased with age both in men and women. Using the stand-up and two-step tests, 107 patients (46.7%) were diagnosed with LS. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve, used to assess our identification of LS in terms of grip strength in men and women, showed 95% confidence intervals of 0.703 (0.563-0.813) and 0.698 (0.500-0.842), respectively. The odds ratios of grip strength for LS were 0.90 (95% confidence interval 0.83-0.97) and 0.87 (95% confidence interval 0.76-0.98) in men and women, respectively.
conclusionsOur findings showed that handgrip measurement was useful in detecting LS, and LS should be considered when evaluating patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
