1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

objectivePrevious studies have reported the relationship between nutritional status and gait independence in elderly fracture patients. However, the degree to which nutritional indicators are related to gait independence is unclear. The purpose of this study is to calculate a cutoff value for a nutritional indicator related to gait independence in patients with hip and vertebral compression fractures.

methodThis study included 69 patients (33 hip fracture, 36 vertebral compression fracture) who underwent rehabilitation at a convalescent rehabilitation ward. The relationships between nutritional indexes (Mini-Nutritional Assessment-Short Form [MNA
