Association of Age and Sex with Metabolic Syndrome in Taiwanese Adults.
Article in International journal of general medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
objectiveThis study aimed to investigate the association of age and sex with metabolic syndrome (MS) in Taiwanese adults.
methodsWe extracted information of 4307 men and 4783 women aged 30-70 from the Taiwan Biobank.
resultsThe interaction between age and sex on MS was significant (p-value = 0.0001). After stratification by sex, men and women aged 50-70 years (reference: 30≤age<50 years) had a higher risk of MS. The odds ratio (OR), 95% confidence interval (CI) was 2.316, 1.936-2.772 in men and 3.101, 2.561-3.754 in women. After stratification by age, men aged 50-70 years had a lower risk of MS compared to women (OR, 95% CI = 0.713, 0.598-0.851).
conclusionThe interaction between age and sex on MS was significant. Sex-wise, both men and women aged 50-70 years had a higher likelihood of MS. Age-wise, men aged 50-70 years had a lower risk of MS compared to women.
