A Cross-Sectional Study on Metabolic Syndrome Parameters, the Nutritional Index, and Physical Status Associated with or Without the Possible Diagnosed Sarcopenia in Older Women Using A Propensity Score Matching Method.
Article in Journal of frailty, sarcopenia and falls, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Objectives: To develop strategies against sarcopenia, physiological and biochemical data in older women were analyzed using propensity score matching. Methods: Fifty-six women aged ≥75 years with the AWGS calf circumference <33 cm were included in the sarcopenia risk group. Low muscle strength (handgrip strength <18kg) or low physical performance (five-times-sit-to-stand test ≥12s) were used the possible-sarcopenia group. Propensity score matching adjusted for age and BMI was performed between the possible-sarcopenia group with low muscle strength (or physical performance) and the sarcopenia risk group without low muscle strength (or physical performance). The comparison included nutritional index, metabolic syndrome parameters, BMD, and skeletal muscle mass index score between both groups. Results: The possible-sarcopenia group with low muscle strength exhibited significantly lower BMD (p=0.014) and skeletal muscle mass index score (p=0.002) compared to the sarcopenia risk group without low muscle strength. The possible-sarcopenia group with low physical performance exhibited significantly lower AST (p=0.034) compared to the sarcopenia risk group without low physical performance. Conclusion: These results suggest that older women with possible sarcopenia and low muscle strength may have reduced BMD and skeletal muscle mass index.
