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

Objectives: With global population aging and obesity rates rising, the prevalence of sarcopenic obesity (SO) is being rapidly increased, resulting in significant health impacts and making it a growing public health concern in academic circles. Exercise and nutrition are crucial in the etiology, prevention, and management of SO; therefore, bibliometric research in this field can provide key insights for future scientific inquiry. Methods: The literature concerning on nutrition and exercise in SO published over the past 20 years and indexed in the Web of Science Core Collection database and Scopus database was screened, and bibliometric analyses were subsequently conducted using CiteSpace and VOSviewer. Results: A total of 658 literatures were selected for bibliometric analysis. A steady rise in publications in this field over 20 years was shown by the results, with major contributions being made by China and the US. The most literatures were published by the University Clermont Auvergne, with Professor Yves Boirie being identified as the most prolific author. The journal Conclusion: This study provides a comprehensive overview of the current state of nutrition and exercise research in SO.
