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

Handgrip strength (HGS), cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) and body size, shape, and composition are all related to cardiometabolic health and are associated in cross-sectional settings. Their longitudinal relationship is less clear. We used observational data from the Study of Health in Pomerania at baseline (SHIP-TREND-0; 2008-2012) and follow-up (SHIP-TREND-1; 2016-2019) with 1,214 men and 1,293 women. HGS was measured with a hand dynamometer. CRF was assessed using cardiopulmonary exercise testing. Linear regression models were adjusted appropriately. Several sensitivity analyses were performed. From baseline to follow-up (7 years) HGS decreased in men (3.5 kg) and women (0.8 kg). VO
