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

Objective: In this study, we aimed to investigate the frequency of sarcopenia in patients with schizophrenia and the risk factors that may be associated with sarcopenia. Methods: We recruited 72 schizophrenia patients who had registered in the schizophrenia specialized unit of Çukurova University. The socio-demographic variable form was filled. Each patient underwent physical mass, strength, and performance tests to confirm the diagnosis of sarcopenia (SP), which was made according to the criteria of European Consensus. Results: Mean age of the patients was 39.50 (19-65) years for the possible sarcopenia group and 37.00 (21-65) years for without SP group. Possible sarcopenia was 36.1% ( Conclusion: This is the first study that investigated SP in schizophrenia patients. Sarcopenia was found more frequently in schizophrenia patients than in the general population.
