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

introductionAlthough sports participation is advocated in people with haemophilia (PWH), detailed data concerning sports participation in Dutch PWH is lacking.

aimto assess sports participation in Dutch PWH (6-65 years) compared to the Dutch general population (GP).

methodsData from a nationwide, cross-sectional study in PWH were analysed. Sports participation (type, duration, frequency) was assessed by the Modifiable Activities Questionnaire (MAQ), limitations in activities using the (Paediatric) Haemophilia Activities List ((Ped)HAL). Sports in the two highest categories according to the National Hemophilia Foundation classification were considered high-risk sports. Groups were compared using Chi-square testing.

resultsA total of 524 Adult PWH (median age: 45 (IQR: 30-55); 37% severe) and 126 paediatric PWH (median age: 11 (IQR: 8-14); 52% severe) were included. Sports participation was higher in adults (70%) than the GP (58%) and similar to the GP in children (PWH: 68%, GP: 72%). High-risk sports participation decreased with age in PWH: from 65% (6-12 years) to 17% (50-65 years), which was also observed in the GP. Sports participation in children was independent of severity (non-severe: 67% vs. severe: 65%; P = 0.97), but not in adults (non-severe: 75%, severe: 62%; P < 0.01). Non-severe PWH played more high-risk sports than severe PWH: children at 65% vs. 48% (P = 0.05), adults at 25% vs. 15% (P = 0.07). DISCUSSION: These results suggest that sports participation in PWH was comparable to the GP. Sports participation was dependent of haemophilia severity in adults. Children were more involved in high-risk sports than adults. More studies on sports-related injury-risk are needed for adequate counselling.
