1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

There is limited research on the effects of non-essential metal (NEM) mixture on handgrip strength in the elderly. This study aimed to assess the associations of single NEMs and their mixture with handgrip strength in Chinese community-dwelling older adults. A total of 3807 elderly people aged 60 years or above were included in this study. Measurement of urinary aluminum (Al), arsenic (As), barium (Ba), cadmium (Cd), and gallium (Ga) concentrations was conducted by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). Handgrip strength was measured using a hand dynamometer. Four statistical models, including general linear regression and generalized additive models (GAMs), as well as Bayesian kernel machine regression (BKMR) and quantile-based computation regression (QGC) models, were used to assess the individual and joint effects of urine NEMs with handgrip strength, respectively. After adjusting for covariates, Ga (ß = - 0.27; 95% CI, - 0.54 ~  - 0.01) and As (
