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

backgroundRecent studies have indicated that coffee consumption is inversely correlated with sarcopenia in the elderly population. Data regarding the association between caffeine intake and muscle mass in young adults are scarce.

objectiveWe aimed to investigate how dietary caffeine correlates with muscle mass and sarcopenia in the young and middle-aged people.

methodsWe performed a cross-sectional study utilizing data from NHANES. Muscle mass was evaluated using DXA and caffeine intake was derived from 24-h dietary recalls. Multivariable regression analysis was adopted to explore association between caffeine and sarcopenia. Restricted cubic spline analysis was conducted to investigate dose-response effect of dietary caffeine on muscle mass. Mediation effect of high-sensitivity C reactive protein was examined by mediation analysis.

resultsA total of 9116 adults aged from 20 to 59 years old were included. Higher ingestion of caffeine was not associated with sarcopenia. Association between dietary caffeine and muscle mass was found to be W-shaped in males and U-shaped in young females, wherein mediation effect of hs-CRP was not discovered.

conclusionsCaffeine consumption is associated with muscle mass in a nonlinear pattern. ASMI peaks at a daily caffeine intake of 1.23 mg/kg in young adults, while 0.64-1.49 mg/kg is recommended for middle-aged men.
