Effects of smartphone mirroring-based telepresence exercise on body composition and physical function in obese older women.
Trial report in Aging clinical and experimental research, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers, 2 of them syntheses 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
aimsThis study aimed to develop a smartphone mirroring-based telepresence exercise program that can be performed at home while allowing for real-time feedback by instructors.
methodsFor this randomized controlled trial, 29 obese older women aged 66-87 years with ≥ 30% body fat were recruited at a senior citizen center. The intervention group was provided with the smartphone mirroring-based telepresence exercise program, in which participants exercised in their homes for 20-40 min three times a week for 12 weeks. Participants in the control group performed the same exercise program at the senior citizen center. Body composition and functional abilities were measured before and after the program.
resultsWomen in the intervention group showed a decrease in their body fat percentage (P = 0.026) and an increase in grip strength (P = 0.008). In the control group, women demonstrated a decrease in their weight (P = 0.006) and body fat percentage (P = 0.001) and an increase in skeletal muscle (P = 0.044) and grip strength (P = 0.006).
conclusionSmartphone mirroring-based telepresence exercises at home lower body fat percentage and increase muscle strength similar to traditional group exercises. They present an innovative way for obese older women to improve and maintain their health.
