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

introductionThis study aimed to investigate the association between hip extensor muscle weakness and performance of activities of daily living (ADL) including stair ambulation, sit-to-stand (STS), and walking in patients with early-stage knee osteoarthritis (OA).

methodsCommunity-dwelling older individuals (age ≥ 65 years and Kellgren-Lawrence grade 1-2) were recruited in this cross-sectional study. The ability to perform stair ambulation, STS, and walking was measured using the Japanese Knee Osteoarthritis Measure. The maximum isometric knee extensor and hip extensor muscle strengths were evaluated. To investigate the association between hip extensor muscle strength and performance on ADL, a multivariate logistic analysis was conducted, adjusting for age, sex, and knee extensor muscle strength.

resultsA total of 161 participants were included in this study. Multivariate logistic analysis revealed a significant association between lower hip extensor muscle strength and higher presence of difficulty in stair ambulation [odds ratio (OR), 0.33; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.11. 0.98; p < 0.05] and STS (OR, 0.32; 95% CI, 0.11. 0.92; p < 0.05). No significant association between hip extensor muscle strength and difficulty in walking was observed (OR, 0.47; 95% CI, 0.14. 1.62; p = 0.23).

conclusionsHip extensor muscle weakness was associated with difficulty during stair ambulation and STS in patients with early-stage knee OA, after adjusting for knee extensor muscle strength. The results suggest that hip extensor muscle strength may be important to improve or maintain ADL in patients with early-stage knee OA.
