Comparison of ten predictive equations for estimating lean body mass with dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry in older patients.
Article in The British journal of radiology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
objectivesWhite fat contributes to body weight (BW) but accumulates very little [
methodsDXA-based LBM was compared with ten equation-based estimates of LBM in terms of the slope, bias and 95% limits of agreement (LOA) of Bland-Altman plots, and Pearson correlation coefficients (r). Data from 747 men and 811 women aged 60-65 years were included.
resultsGallagher's equation was optimal in males (slope = 0.13, bias = -2.4 kg, LOA = 12.8 kg and
conclusionsThe Gallagher and Janmahasatian equations were optimal and almost indistinguishable in predicting LBM in subjects aged 60-65 years. ADVANCES IN KNOWLEDGE: Determination of the optimum equation for predicting lean body mass to improve the calculation of SUL for [
