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 This survey aimed to present reference values for phase angle (PhA) measured using the InBody770 (InBody Japan Inc., Koto City, Tokyo, Japan) in Japanese individuals with normal fluid balance, defined as an extracellular water/total body water (ECW/TBW) ratio <0.4. Materials and methods This retrospective survey analyzed data obtained from 15,999 measurements of Japanese individuals aged eight to 99 years who were assessed using the InBody770 body composition analyzer. Exclusion criteria were unsuccessful InBody measurements due to impedance errors, individuals with multiple measurement records, aged <10 years, those with a body mass index (BMI) ≥40.0 kg/m², and those with an ECW/TBW ratio ≥0.4. The survey included age, sex, height, weight, BMI, skeletal muscle index (SMI), ECW/TBW, and whole-body PhA. Results After applying the exclusion criteria, the final analysis included 2,562 datasets (959 men and 1,603 women). PhA reference values stratified by age, sex, and BMI using the InBody770 were established. PhA generally decreased with advancing age and tended to be higher in individuals with higher BMI and in men. The overall mean PhA was 5.4 ± 0.8° in men and 4.7 ± 0.5° in women. Conclusions The PhA reference values established in this survey using the InBody770 may serve as a basis for advancing research on PhA and for calculating standardized PhA (SPA) values in Asian populations.
