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

Excessive positive energy balance is a major factor leading to obesity. The ability to alter the appetite-regulating hormones leptin, adiponectin, and ghrelin may help decrease excessive energy intake. Exercise and exposure to extreme temperatures can independently affect these appetite-regulating hormones. PURPOSE: To determine the effect of exercising in different environmental conditions on the circulating concentrations of leptin, adiponectin, and ghrelin.

methodsEleven recreationally-trained male participants completed 3 separate 1 h cycling bouts at 60% W

resultsLeptin concentrations were lower at post and 3 h post-exercise compared with pre-exercise, with and without correction for plasma volume shifts, regardless of temperature (p < 0.05). Adiponectin was higher post-exercise compared with pre-exercise (p = 0.021) but not 3 h post-exercise (p = 0.084) without correction for plasma volume shifts. However, adiponectin concentrations were not different at any time point when plasma volume shifts were accounted for (p > 0.05). Total ghrelin and acylated ghrelin concentrations were not affected at post and 3 h post-exercise compared with pre-exercise, with and without correcting for plasma volume shifts, regardless of ambient temperature (p > 0.05). No differences in leptin, adiponectin, or ghrelin were found between trials (p > 0.05).

conclusionTemperature does not affect the circulating concentrations of appetite-regulating hormones during an acute bout of endurance exercise.
