Association between Clinical Characteristics and Sarcopenia or Sarcopenic Obesity in Crohn's Disease.
Article in Internal medicine (Tokyo, Japan), 2025. 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
Objective Crohn's disease (CD) is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease that is associated with malnutrition. Sarcopenia is a malnutrition condition characterized by skeletal muscle loss that impairs the physical function. We investigated the clinical characteristics of patients with CD with sarcopenia and sarcopenic obesity (sarcopenic-o). Methods The body composition of patients with CD was evaluated using a bioelectrical impedance analysis. The clinical characteristics of patients with sarcopenia and sarcopenic-o were analyzed, and a predictive model for sarcopenia was developed. Patients Patients with CD recruited from 2019 to 2021 were included. Results Among the 104 patients, 35 (33.7%) and 10 (9.6%) had sarcopenia and sarcopenic-o, respectively. In the sarcopenia group, the skeletal muscle index (SMI) and body mass index (BMI) were lower than those in the control group (SMI, 6.3 kg/m
