[Sarcopenia-what should the orthopedist know?]
Review in Der Orthopade, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Sarcopenia - the age-associated loss of muscle function and muscle mass - is of utmost importance for older patients with degenerative and traumatic diseases of the musculoskeletal system, as it closely linked to the loss of independence and quality of life in higher age. Impairments of mobility that are highly present in this patient group accelerate the age-associated decline of muscle function and muscle mass. The diagnosis of sarcopenia relies primarily on tests of strength and function like handgrip, chair-rise test and gait speed. The measurement of muscle mass is desirable, but not mandatory. In the near future the prevention and treatment of sarcopenia has to become part of the clinical routine for older orthopedic patients. Specific modifications of physical exercise like resistance training and optimal nutrition with regard to protein intake (1.0-1.2 g/kg bodyweight per day) in combination with vitamin D supplementation are key components of sarcopenia prevention and therapy.
