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

introductionSarcopenia has been associated with lower activities of daily living (ADL). This study investigated whether sarcopenia at admission is associated with ADL at discharge in patients with osteoporotic vertebral fractures (OVF) and whether this differs by treatment (conservative or balloon kyphoplasty, BKP). MATERIALS AND

methodsThis prospective cohort study included 78 patients with OVF (76.8% female; mean age 83.0 ± 6.7 years). Sarcopenia was defined according to the 2019 Asian Working Group for Sarcopenia criteria, requiring low skeletal muscle mass and low handgrip strength. The outcome was ADL at discharge. Multivariate regression analyses were performed after adjusting for age, sex, mini-mental state examination (MMSE), functional independence measure (FIM-M) at admission, and geriatric nutritional risk index (GNRI). An interaction term (sarcopenia × treatment) was included to examine treatment-dependent associations.

resultsMultivariate analysis revealed a significant association between sarcopenia at admission and lower FIM-M at discharge (B = - 11.77, β = - 0.36, 95% CI = - 20.47 to - 3.07, P = 0.009). A significant interaction between sarcopenia and treatment was also detected (B = 5.81, β = 0.40, 95% CI = 0.02 to 11.60, P = 0.049), indicating that the association between sarcopenia and FIM-M at discharge differed with treatment modality.

conclusionSarcopenia at admission correlated with ADL at discharge in patients with OVF. This association was modified by treatment modality, with the negative association attenuated in patients undergoing BKP.
