Muscle Mass Adjusted by Body Height is not Correlated with Mobility of Middle-Aged and Older Adults.
Article in Current developments in nutrition, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
Background: Low muscle mass and obesity are associated with mobility disability, cardiometabolic diseases, and loss of independence. Three skeletal muscle indices (SMIs) are proposed to adjust the body size of individuals. However, it is unknown which index is better correlated with mobility. Additionally, it remains unclear whether low muscle mass or abdominal obesity has a greater impact on the mobility and cardiometabolic health of older adults. Objectives: This study explored the association between different SMIs {appendicular skeletal muscle mass [ASM] adjusted by body height [Ht], body weight [Wt], or body mass index [BMI (kg/m Methods: Four-hundred and twenty-seven community-dwelling middle-aged and older adults underwent body composition assessments [dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry and waist circumference (WC)], grip strength, and mobility (timed up-and-go test and chair stand test). Spearman's rank correlation coefficient and regression models were used to examine research questions. This study was registered in the Thai Clinical Trials Registry (registration number: TCTR20210521007). Results: All SMIs were positively correlated with the grip strength (ASM/Ht Conclusions: ASM/Ht
