Impact of Handgrip Strength on Clinical Outcomes after Percutaneous Coronary Intervention.
Observational study in Journal of atherosclerosis and thrombosis, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
aimThe relationship between handgrip strength (HGS) and clinical outcomes after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has not yet been thoroughly investigated.
methodsThis was a single-center, observational study. A total of 469 patients who underwent PCI and whose periprocedural HGS was measured were included. Patients were divided into two groups: the low HGS group (men, ＜28 kg; women, ＜18 kg) and the high HGS group (men, ≥ 28 kg; women, ≥ 18 kg). The primary outcome was the composite endpoint of all-cause death, myocardial infarction (MI), and heart failure readmission.
resultsThere were 151 patients in the low HGS group and 318 patients in the high HGS group. The age of patients in the low HGS group was significantly higher (median [interquartile range]: 78 [71-82] vs. 70 [61-75] years, p＜0.001), while the body mass index and serum albumin level were significantly lower (body mass index: 22.5 [20.2-24.3] vs. 24.3 [22.3-26.6] kg/m
conclusionsLow HGS was independently associated with adverse outcomes after PCI.
