Association of sarcopenic obesity with cognitive dysfunction: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

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.
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
objectivesTo evaluate the association between sarcopenic obesity and cognitive dysfunction. Changes in human body composition may be linked to the development of cognitive dysfunction. Sarcopenic obesity, characterized by excessive fat accumulation and reduced muscle mass, is implicated in various adverse health outcomes.
methodsWe conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis. PubMed, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, Embase, CINAHL, CNKI, Sinomed, Wanfang, and VIP databases were searched for studies examining the link between sarcopenic obesity and cognitive dysfunction. The process adhered to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines.
resultsEight studies, comprising 87,520 participants (5 cohort and 3 cross-sectional studies) were included. Meta-analysis using a random effects model addressed high heterogeneity (
conclusionSarcopenic obesity is associated with cognitive dysfunction. However, further research utilizing standardized diagnostic criteria and methodologies is essential to corroborate these findings.
