Shouting strengthens voluntary force during sustained maximal effort through enhancement of motor system state via motor commands.

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
Previous research indicates that shouting during momentary maximal exertion effort potentiates the maximal voluntary force through the potentiation of motor cortical excitability. However, the muscular force-enhancing effects of shouting on sustained maximal force production remain unclear. We investigated the effect of shouting on the motor system state by examining motor evoked potentials in response to transcranial magnetic stimulation applied over the hand area of the contralateral primary motor cortex (M1) during sustained maximal voluntary contraction, and by assessing handgrip maximal voluntary force. We observed that shouting significantly increased handgrip maximal voluntary force and reduced the silent period. Our results indicate that shouting increased handgrip voluntary force during sustained maximal exertion effort through the reduced silent period. This is the first objective evidence that the muscular force of shouting during maximal force exertion is associated with the potentiation of motor system activity produced by the additional drive of shouting operating on the motor system (i.e., shouting-induced excitatory input to M1).
