Association between Dynapenia and Multimorbidity in Community-Dwelling Older Adults: A Systematic Review.
Synthesis in Annals of geriatric medicine and research, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
Dynapenia and multimorbidity are common health problems affecting older adults. However, few studies have systematically reviewed the association between dynapenia and multimorbidity. Therefore, this systematic review aimed to provide a comprehensive overview of studies on the association between these conditions. We searched four electronic databases for relevant articles published in July 2023. The main inclusion criteria were the following: a description of dynapenia, which indicates loss of muscle strength, and a description of multimorbidity with two or more chronic diseases. Five studies met these inclusion criteria. In all five of these studies, the participants were community-dwelling older adults. All the studies showed an association between dynapenia and multimorbidity. The prevalence of dynapenia and multimorbidity ranged from 16% to 25.9%. The results of our systematic review demonstrated that dynapenia in older adults increases the risk of multimorbidity. We propose that interventions and reversible changes in dynapenia can prevent multimorbidity. (PROSPERO Registration No. CRD42023443282).
