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

backgroundThe long-term relationship between body composition and lung function has not yet been fully demonstrated. We investigated the longitudinal association between muscle-to-fat (MF) ratio and lung function among middle-aged general population.

methodsParticipants were enrolled from a community-based prospective cohort between 2005 and 2014. Lung function parameters (forced vital capacity [FVC], forced expiratory volume in 1 s [FEV

resultsWe followed up 4,712 participants (age 53.9 ± 7.9 years, men 45.8%) for 8 years. With an increase in MF ratio of 1, in men, the FVC increased by 43.9 mL, FEV

conclusionsLong-term changes in the MF ratio are related to lung function deterioration and incidence of airflow obstruction in middle-aged general population.
