Hematologic changes after short term hypoxia in non-elite apnea divers under voluntary dry apnea conditions.
Observational study in PloS one, 2020. 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
purposeThis study investigated the acute changes in full spectrum differential blood cell count including reticulocytes and immature reticulocytes after a voluntary maximal dry apnea in non-elite divers. Aim of the present study is to obtain information on important regulatory compensation mechanisms and to provide insights into apneic regulatory processes.
methodsTen apnea divers performed a voluntary dry mean apnea time of 317 sec [SD ±111 sec]. Differential blood cell count including reticulocytes was measured before and immediately after a single maximal breath-hold. To evaluate kinetics, blood samples were also taken after 30 min and 4 h. Value distributions are presented with dot plots. P-values were calculated using a mixed linear model for time dependency. Four difference values were compared to baseline values with Dunnett's procedure.
resultsSignificant changes were found in red blood cell parameters for erythrocytes, red cell distribution width, hematocrit, hemoglobin, MCV, reticulocytes and immature reticulocytes, and in white blood cell parameters for leucocytes, lymphocytes, immature granulocytes, monocytes, basophile granulocytes, neutrophil granulocytes and eosinophil granulocytes and for thrombocytes.
conclusionAdaptive mechanisms regarding cell counts in elite apnea divers are not readily transferable to non-elite recreational sportspersons. Divers and physicians should be aware of the limited adaptive performance of humans in the case of extended apnea.
