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

Introduction: We aimed to comprehensively evaluate the association between four important dietary patterns and micronutrients with sarcopenia and osteopenia. Data were obtained from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2005-2018. Methods: The association between dietary patterns and micronutrients with sarcopenia and osteopenia was evaluated by logistic regression models. 6709 and 7161 participants were included in the final analyses. Results: Higher adherence to HEI-2020, aMed, and DASH dietary patterns was inversely associated with sarcopenia risk, with each standard deviation (SD) increment linked to 18%, 16%, and 14% reductions in odds, respectively. However, DII increased the prevalence of sarcopenia and osteopenia by 44% and 8% per SD increase. Dietary intake of vitamins A, B2, B9, C, calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, copper, and potassium were negatively associated with sarcopenia, whereas vitamins D and K were negatively associated with osteopenia. SIRI and NLR partially mediated the associations among them. Discussion: Adherence to healthy dietary patterns especially anti-inflammatory diet and supplementary micronutrients reduce bone and muscle loss.
