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

backgroundTechnological limitations associated with oesophageal and rectal temperature probes have previously limited match play observations of body temperature.

objectiveTo investigate the application of an intestinal pill system to measure core temperature during dynamic, field based, soccer matches.

methodsCore temperature (T(c)) was assessed using the intestinal pill system (CorTemp 2000) and changes in plasma volume were calculated using the values for haemoglobin and packed cell volume obtained before and after recreational (n = 8) and the professional soccer (n = 7) matches.

resultsIn the recreational match, there were significant post-match reductions in body mass (-1.6%, p<0.05) and plasma volume (-7.2%, p<0.01). Significant increases were observed in T(c) from rest to half time (p<0.01) and from half time to full time (p<0.05). In the professional match, body mass decreased by 1.9% (p<0.05) and plasma volume by 11.6% (p<0.01). T(c) increased from rest to half time (p<0.01) but was unchanged from half time to full time. Significant associations were observed between maximum oxygen consumption and match play heart rates in the second half of each match but these were not related to changes in plasma volume or T(c).

conclusionsIntestinal temperature proved a useful method of recording core temperature during soccer match play and assisted in the measurement of alterations in thermoregulatory variables in response to both professional and recreational level soccer matches; however, technological limitations still restrict the wider application of this method, especially at a competitive level.
