Article in Biology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT03031951 (Lifestyle Intervention Program for Former Elite Athletes), which is not on this map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.

Abstract

backgroundspecific bioelectrical impedance vector analysis (BIVA) has been proposed as an alternative bioimpedance method for evaluating body composition. This investigation aimed to verify the ability of specific BIVA in identifying changes in fat mass after a 16-week lifestyle program in former athletes.

methodsThe 94 participants included in the Champ4life project (clinicaltrials.gov: NCT03031951) were randomized into intervention (

resultsA significant (

conclusionsThe specific BIVA approach is suitable to track fat mass changes during an intervention program aimed to reduce body fat in former athletes.
