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

Hand grip strength has been widely used in various areas of medicine as an indicator of sarcopenia, nutritional status, risk of cognitive diseases, chronic degenerative diseases and as a predictor of mortality. Several studies have evaluated the relationship between hand grip strength and blood pressure, even though the results have not been conclusive because there are several proven factors that influence hand strength. Therefore, it is relevant to evaluate this relationship in the Mexican population since there are few studies in this field.
