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

backgroundThe German version of the SarQoL

methodsVia a cross-sectional study participants were recruited in two geriatric outpatient facilities and one acute geriatric ward in Munich (Germany). Sarcopenia and probable sarcopenia were diagnosed with the European Working Group on Sarcopenia in Older People (EWGSOP2) algorithm. From 185 participants (age 79.8 ± 6.1), 77 had probable sarcopenia, and 51 had sarcopenia. Participants completed the SarQoL

resultsLower SarQoL

conclusionQoL was similarly reduced in both patient cohorts compared to controls. The German SarQoL
