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

backgroundThe change in N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) levels follows a paradox imposed by strenuous endurance exercise. Previous reports showed significant body weight (BW) loss was common in ultramarathon runners. This study investigated whether the BW change and renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system activation contribute to exercise-induced NT-proBNP release.

methodsA total of 26 participants who finished a 100 km ultramarathon in Taiwan were enrolled. For each participant, blood samples and spot urine samples were collected 1 week before the race, as well as immediately and 24 hours after the finish. BW change was recorded to monitor the hydration status.

resultsProlonged endurance exercise led to a substantial increase in NT-proBNP. Compared with prerace values, NT-proBNP levels significantly increased immediately after the race (24.3 ± 20.2 pg/mL to 402.9 ± 305.9 pg/mL, p < 0.05) and maintained high levels until 24 hours after the race (143.7 ± 126.1 pg/mL, p < 0.05). The fractional excretion of sodium values was below 1% in three different time points. The 100 km ultramarathon resulted in significant BW loss and elevated renin and aldosterone levels. However, only 24 hours after the race, a positive significant relationship was found between NT-proBNP and aldosterone levels (p = 0.007, r = 0.267), but a negative significant relationship between NT-proBNP and BW increased during the recovery phase (p < 0.001, r = 0.372).

conclusionThe mechanism of NT-proBNP release immediately following the race was multifaceted. During the recovery phase, rehydration might lead to the decrease of NT-proBNP. Our observations with regard to aldosterone and NT-proBNP might be in response to help the body maintains hydration state.
