Hemoglobin and Endotoxin Levels Predict Sarcopenia Occurrence in Patients with Alcoholic Cirrhosis.
Article in Diagnostics (Basel, Switzerland), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 3 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
Alcohol is a major risk factor of liver cirrhosis (LC). This study aimed to elucidate a surrogate marker of sarcopenia in patients with LC of different etiology. Out of 775 patients with LC, 451 were assessed for handgrip strength and skeletal muscle mass (by computed tomography). They were then divided into two groups: alcoholic cirrhosis (AC;
