Crosstalk between skeletal muscle ratio and cholesterol metabolism disorders: a cross-section study.
Article in BMC endocrine disorders, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundDysfunction of cholesterol metabolism may be associated with low skeletal muscle mass. This study aimed to explore the relationship between skeletal muscle mass and cholesterol metabolic disorders in adults.
methodsThe data of a total of 5949 people with complete medical history data, biochemical data and body composition analysis were recruited. According to the serum cholesterol, low density lipoprotein (LDL), high density lipoprotein (HDL) and nonHDL, the population was divided into a disorder group and a normal group. Independent sample t tests, chi-square tests, Pearson's correlation analyses and binary logistic regression analyses were used to study the effect of body composition on abnormal cholesterol metabolism. According to BMI and sex, the population was divided into different subgroups, and binary logistic regression analysis was used to study the effect of the skeletal mass ratio on cholesteral metabolic disorders in different subgroups.
resultsThere were significant differences in sex, alcohol consumption, body weight, BMI, skeletal muscle mass index (SMI) [total skeletal muscle mass (kg)/height 2 (m2)] and skeletal muscle mass ratio (SMR) [total skeletal muscle mass (kg)/weight (kg) *100] between the disorder group (hypercholesterolemia, hyper-LDL, lower-HDL and hyper-nonHDL) and the normal group. Pearson correlation analysis revealed that the SMR was negatively correlated, while the SMI was positively correlated with cholesterol metabolic disorders in both sexes. The overweight group was older and had a greater SMI, abnormal cholesteral metabolism ratio and lower SMR than the normal-weight group. In the normal-weight group, the SMR was an independent protective factor against different kinds of cholesteral metabolic disorders in both sexes, while the SMI was a risk factor. In the overweight subgroup, the protective effect on HDL and nonHDL metabolism remained in the male subgroup but disappeared in the female subgroup. However, the SMI was an independent risk factor for different kinds of cholesteral metabolic disorders in both sexes.
conclusionsSMR was an independent protective factor against cholesterol metabolic disorders in both males and females, especially in the normal weight group. SMI was an independent risk factor, especially in the overweight group.
