Association of Handgrip Strength in Various Disabilities in Korean Adults over 50 Years Old: A Nationwide Cross-Sectional Study.
Article in International journal of environmental research and public health, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Several studies have shown an association between low hand grip strength (HGS) and functional limitations. This study aims to elucidate the association between HGS and functional limitations. We used the nationwide health examination data and included 13,517 Korean adults that were aged ≥ 50 years. We measured HGS using digital dynamometer and the maximum value of the dominant hand was divided into quartiles for the analysis. Functional limitations were assessed by using self-administered questionnaires. We categorized the 24 reported causes of functional limitations into musculoskeletal, cardiometabolic, neuropsychiatric, cancers, and others. In multiple regression analysis, the functional limitations tended to increase as HGS was lowered in both sexes. When analyzing according to the reasons of functional limitations, the ORs for functional limitations due to cardiometabolic problem tended to increase as the HGS decreased in men (
