The effect of training on performance and health in middle age.
Article in Herz, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Performance losses in middle age are often attributed to biological ageing. Running-time analyses in long-distance runners aged 20-80 years (n > 500,000) show that in fact no significant performance reductions occur before the age of 54 years. Moreover, further investigations carried out in the context of the PACE project (http://www.dshs-koeln.de/en/pace) reveal that performance losses in middle age are primarily caused by unhealthy lifestyle and lack of training. The increasing number of overweight, untrained individuals indicates that current preventive efforts are insufficient. Maintaining health and performance is becoming an urgent problem in modern society and a solution to this cost-intensive problem is not yet in sight.
