Dynapenia Rather Than Sarcopenia Is Associated with Metabolic Syndrome in Patients with Chronic Liver Diseases.
Article in Diagnostics (Basel, Switzerland), 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
We aimed to examine the association between sarcopenia-related factors and metabolic syndrome (Met-S) in patients with chronic liver diseases (CLDs, n = 582, average age = 59.5 years, 290 males, 168 liver cirrhosis cases). Met-S was determined based on the Japanese criteria. Sarcopenia was determined based on grip strength (GS) and skeletal muscle index (SMI) by bioelectrical impedance analysis. Our cohort was divided into the four groups: (A) sarcopenia (n = 44), (B) dynapenia (n = 45), (C) presarcopenia (n = 112), and (D) the control (n = 381). Impacts of GS and SMI on Met-S were investigated. In males, waist circumference (WC) ≥ 85 cm was observed in 199 patients (68.6%), while in females, WC ≥ 90 cm was observed in 94 patients (32.2%). Met-S was identified in 109 patients (18.7%). The proportion of Met-S in the group A, B, C and D were 18.2%, 48.9%, 8.0%, and 18.4% (A vs. B,
