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

Physical inactivity has been linked to several non-communicable diseases. This cross-sectional study investigated the impact of moderate-intensity exercise on physical fitness, adiposity, and cardiovascular risk factors in 284 Saudi male university students in the Eastern Province of Saudi Arabia between 2017 and 2019. The physical activity (PA) intervention comprised three (120 minutes each) sessions of moderate intensity on non-consecutive days each week, delivering a total of 360 minutes of PA per week for ten weeks. We measured physical fitness using VO
