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

[Purpose] Effective nutritional management is essential for inpatient rehabilitation. This study aimed to examine changes in body composition in relation to weight gain or loss between admission and discharge from convalescent rehabilitation wards. [Participants and Methods] A total of 91 patients (39 men and 52 women) admitted to convalescent rehabilitation wards were included. Body composition, height, and weight were measured during admission and discharge using a device which allows measurements in seated or supine positions (InBody S10). Patients were classified into three groups based on whether they gained, maintained, or lost at least 3% of their body weight. [Results] Thirteen participants (six men and seven women) were categorized into the weight gain group, 58 (24 men and 34 women) into the unchanged group, and 20 (nine men and 11 women) into the weight loss group. Significant differences in the percentage change in the amount of body fat in men and change in the skeletal muscle mass index in women were observed. [Conclusion] In men, changes in body fat mass were observed, while in women, skeletal muscle mass changes were observed, which were linked to weight variations. These findings underscore the gender-specific differences in body composition changes during inpatient rehabilitation.
