Nutrition and exercise for sarcopenia treatment.
Review in Osteoporosis and sarcopenia, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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
Sarcopenia, the age-related loss of muscle mass, strength, and performance, is a significant concern in the aging population. Despite extensive research, no consensus exists on its prevention and treatment. Sarcopenia increases the risk of functional disability, falls, hospitalization, long-term care, morbidity, and mortality among older adults. Currently, no approved pharmacological treatments for sarcopenia exist, making exercise and nutrition the most effective interventions. Evidence indicates that targeted exercise reduces risk factors, preventing or treating sarcopenia in older adults. Progressive, moderate-intensity exercise, alone or combined with nutritional supplementation, is recommended to mitigate muscle deterioration associated with aging. While non-pharmacological interventions are the primary approach, conflicting evidence exists regarding the most effective exercise and nutrition strategies. This review highlights that single intervention, such as exercise or nutritional supplementation alone, provide limited benefits for preventing or treating sarcopenia. In contrast, combined interventions, comprehensive exercise training and nutritional supplementation, effectively improve clinical indicators, including muscle mass, strength, and gait speed, in older adults with sarcopenia.
