Skeletal muscle mass and kidney function among Chinese older adults: a cross-sectional study.
Article in Renal failure, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
objectivesTo assess the association between kidney function and odds of having low skeletal muscle mass (LSMM) in Chinese adults on the basis of a community study. DATA AND
methodsIn this cross-sectional study, we included 3726 Chinese older persons who participated in an ongoing prospective study, the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study(CHARLS). Fasting blood samples were collected in 2012 and analyzed for serum creatinine. Estimated glomerular filtration rate(eGFR) was computed using serum creatinine, gender, and age, according to the 2021 race-free Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration equation (CKD-EPI). We classified the target population into three categories according to eGFR (normal eGFR;90mL/min/1.73m
resultsWorsening renal function was associated with being high risk for LSMM after adjusting for potential confounders:the odds ratios (ORs) 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were 0.76 (95% CI = 0.63 - 0.88) for male, and [0.71, (0.61-0.82)]in female,
conclusionsLower levels of eGFR had a high likelihood of being high risk for LSMM. Older male patients with mildly renal insufficiency are more likely to experience a decrease in skeletal muscle mass compared to female.
