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

objectiveTo determine whether sex differences exist in the pulmonary oxygen uptake (VO2) uptake on-kinetic response to moderate exercise in obese adolescents. We also examined whether a relationship existed between the VO2 on-transient response to moderate intensity exercise, steady-state VO2, and peak VO2 between obese male and female adolescents. STUDY

designMale (n = 12) and female (n = 28) adolescents completed a graded exercise test to exhaustion on a treadmill. Data from the initial 4 minutes of treadmill walking were used to determine the time constant.

resultsThe time constant was significantly different (P = .001) between obese male and female adolescents (15.17 ± 8.45 seconds vs 23.07 ± 8.91 seconds, respectively). No significant relationships were observed between the time constant and variables of interest in either sex.

conclusionsSex differences exist in VO2 uptake on-kinetics during moderate exercise in obese adolescents, indicating an enhanced potential for male subjects to deliver and/or use oxygen. It may be advantageous for female subjects to engage in a longer warm-up period before the initiation of an exercise regimen to prevent an early termination of the exercise session.
