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: The present study was conducted to examine the effects of a 1-year multicomponent exercise training (MCET) program on the physical function and sarcopenia status of community-dwelling older adults with probable sarcopenia. Methods: Data of 132 Brazilian community-dwelling older adults with probable sarcopenia were examined. The MCET program was performed twice a week over 1 year. Physical performance evaluations included (i) timed "up-and-go" (TUG), (ii) one-leg stand, (iii) walking speed (WS) at normal pace and fast pace, (iv) 5-time sit-to-stand (5STS) test, and (v) isometric handgrip strength (IHG). Results: MCET significantly increased TUG (-7.0%), balance (53.0%), 5STS (-10.0%), and WS at normal pace (13.0%). Furthermore, a significant decrease in the prevalence of IHG-based probable sarcopenia was observed (88.6% vs. 67.4%). Conclusions: Findings of the present study indicate that a 1-year intervention program based on an MCET strategy significantly improved multiple physical performance measures and enhanced sarcopenia status in community-dwelling older adults. These improvements may significantly lower the risk of developing adverse outcomes, such as falls, disability, hospitalization, and death. Therefore, the MCET program tested in this study shows promise as a primary care strategy to reduce the burden of physical decline in community-dwelling older adults.
