Not only muscle mass but also muscle quality is associated with knee extension muscle strength in patients with hip fractures.

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
Our results revealed that the decrease in isometric knee extension muscle strength on the operated and nonoperated sides in patients with hip fractures was associated with not only a decrease in skeletal muscle mass but also a decrease in muscle quality, characterized by a decreased PhA. PURPOSE: This study aimed to assess the relationship between isometric knee extension muscle strength on the operated or nonoperated sides and PhA in patients with hip fractures at approximately 6 months postoperatively.
methodsThis study was a cross-sectional study. Skeletal muscle index (SMI), PhA, knee extension muscle strength on the operated and nonoperated sides, and other physical function variables were assessed at approximately 6 months postoperatively. To identify predictors of knee extension muscle strength on the operated and nonoperated sides, hierarchical multiple regression analysis was performed.
resultsA total of 90 patients with hip fractures were included (mean age, 80.1 ± 6.9 years). SMI (0.45) and PhA on the operated side (0.27) were the significant associated factors extracted for isometric knee extension muscle strength on the operated side (standardized partial regression coefficients), independent of age, sex, and body mass index (BMI). Movement control during one-leg standing on the nonoperated side (0.26), SMI (0.32), and PhA on the nonoperated side (0.40) were the significant associated factors extracted for isometric knee extension muscle strength on the nonoperated side, independent of age, sex and BMI.
conclusionsOur results revealed that the decrease in isometric knee extension muscle strength on the operated and nonoperated sides in patients with hip fractures at approximately 6 months postoperatively was associated with not only a decrease in skeletal muscle mass but also a decrease in muscle quality, characterized by a decreased PhA.
