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
Lower ambient temperatures impair neuromuscular function and balance. However, whether lower ambient temperatures could alter joint angles and symmetry of lower limbs during crossing obstacles in males still remains unknown. Therefore, we investigated whether there is reduction of ambient temperature (20°C; 15°C; 10°C) on lower limbs joint angles and symmetry when crossing obstacles in males. On three different occasions, eighteen male participants underwent 30 min exposure to three different environmental temperatures (10°C, 15°C, and 20°C), which was followed by the obstacle crossing test at 10%, 20%, and 30% of the participant leg length. In each trial, we assessed joint angles and symmetry of lower limbs when crossing obstacles at 10%, 20%, and 30% of the participants' leg length. The results showed that leading limb maximum joint angles were greater in 10°C than in 15°C and 20°C when leading limb crossed obstacle heights of 20% and 30% leg length (
