Research hotspots and trends of exercise for sarcopenia: A bibliometric analysis.
Review in Frontiers in public health, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 3 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
Exercise is an effective method for the prevention and treatment of sarcopenia, which can improve skeletal muscle mass, strength and physical function in individuals with sarcopenia to varying degrees. Moreover, exercise has an important role in improving ability to perform daily activities and quality of life on sarcopenia. In this study, articles and review articles on exercise interventions for sarcopenia from January 2003 to July 2022 were retrieved from the Web of Science core collection. Then, the number of annual publications, journal/cited journal, country, institution, author/cited author, references and keywords were analyzed using CiteSpace 6.1.R2. A total of 5,507 publications were collected and the number of publications increasing each year. Experimental Gerontology was the most productive journal and the most cited journal was J GERONTOL A-BIOL. The United States of America was the most influential country with the largest number of publications and centrality. Maastricht University in the Netherlands is the most productive institution. The author VAN LOON LJC has the highest ranking in terms of publications and CRUZ-JENTOFT A is ranked first in terms of cited authors. The most frequently occurring keywords in the field of exercise interventions for sarcopenia are "skeletal muscle," "exercise," "body composition," "strength," and "older adult"; the keyword "elderly men" showed the strongest explosive intensity. The keywords formed 6 clusters, namely "skeletal muscle," "muscle strength," "heart failure," "muscle protein synthesis," "insulin resistance" and "high-intensity interval training." In conclusion, this study demonstrates a new perspective on the current state of research and trends in exercise interventions for sarcopenia over the past 20 years
