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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundAge is related to a decline in muscle mass and physical function in both respiratory and peripheral muscle strength, which could lead to mobility and mortality. In addition, older people have suffered from one or multiple chronic conditions in particular in type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (type 2 DM). However, a few studies have reported the relationship between sarcopenic elderly and respiratory and peripheral muscle strengths in type 2DM.

objectiveTo explore the prevalence of sarcopenia in type 2 DM elderly people among community- dwelling patients and the relationships with peripheral and respiratory muscle loss in sarcopenic type 2 DM older patients.

methodsA total of 330 older individuals were recruited from community-dwelling centers. Respiratory muscle and quadriceps muscle were assessed. According to the defined criteria for sarcopenia (defined by Asian Working Group for Sarcopenia), muscle mass, gait speed (six-meter walk test), and handgrip strength were examined.

resultsOf 330 elderly people, 82 volunteers had a history of type 2 DM. Participants with type 2DM had a risk for sarcopenia (odds ratio= 2.324, 95% CI=1.251-4.317). The prevalence of sarcopenia was 25.61% among older participants with type 2 DM. In addition, decreased respiratory muscle strength and quadriceps muscle strength were observed in type 2 DM with sarcopenia compared to type 2 DM with non-sarcopenia. These relationships also remained after controlling for age and sex.

conclusionSarcopenia in type 2 DM leads to a decrease in respiratory muscle and peripheral muscle strength.
