Inhibitory Effects of Prolonged Vibratory Stimulus on the Maximal Voluntary Contraction Force and Muscle Activity of the Triceps Brachii: An Experimental Study.
Article in Journal of chiropractic medicine, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
objectiveThe purpose of this study was to quantify the effects of prolonged vibratory stimulus on the maximal voluntary contraction (MVC) force and muscle activity of the triceps brachii and to clarify the effective stimulus time.
methodsTwenty-five healthy volunteers with a mean age of 21.4 years participated. A vibratory stimulus at 86 Hz was applied to the triceps brachii tendon for 5 and 10 minutes. Before and after these stimuli, the elbow extension MVC force was measured using a handheld dynamometer. Muscle activities of the lateral, long, and medial heads of the triceps brachii were also recorded by surface electromyography.
resultsThe median MVC force significantly decreased to 82.7% after 5 minutes of vibratory stimulus and to 83.3% after 10 minutes of vibratory stimulus (
conclusionProlonged vibratory stimulus (5 minutes) to the triceps brachii tendon appeared to have an inhibitory effect on MVC force and muscle activity. The present results suggest that prolonged vibratory stimulus could be an effective treatment capable of reducing muscle tonus of the triceps brachii.
