Electrical and Structural Adaption of Athlete's Heart and the Impact on Training and Recovery Management in Professional Basketball Players: A Retrospective Observational Study.
Article in Frontiers in physiology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the 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.
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
introductionWe analyzed data of 27 professional basketball players to prove cardiac remodeling referring echocardiographic parameters, cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET), and 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) analyses. The aim of our study was to present different characteristics in the athletes, on the one hand signs of a high vagal tone in the 12-lead ECG as criteria of early repolarization (ER), furthermore echocardiographic remodeling parameters and finally the performance in CPET. Therefore, we divided the cohort into a group with signs of ER pattern in the 12-lead ECG and without these criteria and presented the differences in detail. MATERIALS AND
methodsThis was a single-center, retrospective study performed in 27 professional basketball players (age: 26.5 ± 7.5 years, male: 27, height: 197.2 ± 12 cm, weight: 100 ± 17 kg, BMI: 25.7 ± 3.4 kg/m
resultsComparing professional basketball players with ER pattern to those with no ER pattern, significant differences were found for CPET, echocardiographic, and ECG analysis (
conclusionProfessional basketball players with criteria of ER pattern showed different results in CPET and cardiac remodeling as athletes with no ER pattern. These findings should encourage the athletic training staff to emphasize the quality of an individual training schedule for each athlete based on the cardiopulmonary pre-season sport medicine checkup. Nevertheless, echocardiographic findings, ER pattern, and performance in CPET have to be interpreted referring the sport-specific and athlete's ethnical background.
