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

The association between visceral fat area (VFA) and locomotive syndrome (LS) has been extensively studied in the older population; however, the association between VFA and early-stage LS (stage 1 [LS1]) remains unclear. In this cross-sectional study, we investigated this association across different age groups. The study involved 1,236 (524 male and 712 female) participants (aged 20-85 years). Multiple regression analysis adjusted for sex, body mass index, skeletal muscle mass index, T-score, exercise habits, smoking status, and alcohol consumption revealed a significant association between LS1 and VFA across all VFA quartiles. The adjusted odds ratio OR for quartiles 2, 3, and 4 was 1.84, 2.68, and 4.12, respectively. The association between LS1 and VFA across the age groups-high VFA (> 73 cm
