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

purposeTo investigate the associations of peak oxygen uptake ([Formula: see text]) and [Formula: see text] at ventilatory threshold ([Formula: see text] at VT) with arterial stiffness in adolescents.

methodsThe participants were 55 adolescents (36 girls, 19 boys) aged 16-19 years. Aortic pulse wave velocity (PWVao) and augmentation index (AIx%) were measured by non-invasive oscillometric device from right brachial artery level. [Formula: see text] was directly measured during a maximal ramp test on a cycle ergometer. [Formula: see text] at VT was determined using the equivalents for ventilation ([Formula: see text]/[Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]/[Formula: see text]). [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] at VT were normalised for body mass (BM) and lean mass (LM). Data were analysed using linear regression analyses and analysis of covariance adjusted for age and sex.

results[Formula: see text] normalised for BM (β = - 0.445, 95% CI - 0.783 to - 0.107) and [Formula: see text] normalised for LM (β = - 0.386, 95% CI - 0.667 to - 0.106) were inversely associated with PWVao. A higher [Formula: see text] at VT normalised for BM (β = - 0.366, 95% CI - 0.646 to - 0.087) and LM (β = - 0.321, 95% CI - 0.578 to - 0.064) was associated with lower PWVao. Adolescents in the lowest third of [Formula: see text] by LM (6.6 vs. 6.1 m/s, Cohen's d = 0.33) and [Formula: see text] at VT by LM (6.6 vs. 6.0 m/s, Cohen's d = 0.33) had a higher PWVao than those in the highest third of [Formula: see text] or [Formula: see text] at VT by LM.

conclusionsHigher [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] at VT by BM and LM were related to lower arterial stiffness in adolescents. Normalising [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] at VT for LM would provide the most appropriate measure of cardiorespiratory fitness in relation to arterial stiffness.
