Nonlinear associations between sleep patterns and sarcopenia risks in older adults.
Article in Journal of clinical sleep medicine : JCSM : official publication of the American Academy of Sleep Medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
STUDY
objectivesDespite considering it as a common geriatric condition, sarcopenia is linked to various behavioral factors that may be changeable. As sleep is one of the important routines in physiological homeostasis, further investigating the underlying relationships of sleep behavior with sarcopenia is urgently needed. We examined the association between sleep parameters (ie, sleep duration, bedtime, wake time, or midsleep time) and sarcopenia risks in older adults, in the total sample and age group subsamples.
methodsA total of 1,068 older adults in Taiwan were included. Data on bedtime, wake time, and sleep duration were collected through telephone interview. Midsleep time was calculated by the midpoint of bedtime and wake time. Sarcopenia was screened by the SARC-F questionnaire composed of 5 questions (the strength, assistance in walking, rising from a chair, climbing stairs, and falls) as well as higher scores was related to greater risks. Generalized additive models were conducted to examine the nonlinear relationships between sleep parameters and sarcopenia risks.
resultsThe covariate-adjusted analysis showed that a reverse J-shaped relationship for sleep duration and sarcopenia risk (
conclusionsThe sleep pattern is significantly associated with sarcopenia risks in aging adults. Improving inappropriate sleep behaviors in older adults is suggested to prevent a decline in muscle function and promote healthy aging. CITATION: Huang W-C, Lin C-Y, Togo F, et al.
