Association Between Isokinetic Lower Extremity Muscle Strength and Bone Mineral Density in Elderly Women With and Without Osteoporosis: A Case-Control Study.

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
Objective: The purpose of this study was to explore the relationship between isokinetic hip and knee muscle strength and bone mineral density (BMD) in elderly women with osteoporosis (OP). Methods: The study included 66 elderly women: 33 with OP (case group A) and 33 healthy controls (control group B). BMD at the femoral head was assessed using Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DEXA). Isokinetic muscle strength of the hip (flexors, extensors, abductors, adductors) and knee (flexors, extensors) was measured using the Biodex System 3 Isokinetic Dynamometer at 60°/sec in concentric mode, with 5 repetitions. Results: The analysis revealed significantly lower strength in all hip muscles in women with OP compared to controls ( Conclusion: Diminished isokinetic strength of hip muscles is more strongly linked to BMD reduction in elderly women with OP. Low BMD may serve as a risk factor for lower extremity muscle weakness, emphasizing the need to focus on hip muscle strength in this population.
