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

To determine adaptation to prolonged exercise in paraplegics, maximal O2 uptake (VO2max) and lactate threshold (LT) were evaluated during an arm cranking exercise in nine patients (P) and nine able-bodied (AB) subjects. Mean VO2max averaged 25.1 and 31.6 ml X min-1 X kg-1 in P and AB groups respectively. VO2max in P was found to be directly related to the level of spinal injury: the higher the lesion the lower the uptake. Lactate threshold expressed as a percentage of VO2max was higher in P (59%) than in AB (43%), and close to that observed in arm-trained athletes. Since training has less effect on VO2max in paraplegics than in able-bodied subjects, attributable to a deficiency in the circulatory adaptation of paraplegics to exercise, the observed differences between AB and P in lactate threshold and submaximal exercise indicate that the possible effect of training in paraplegics is located at the level of intracellular chemistry, with a diminution in glycogenolysis (higher LT) and a higher rate of lipid utilization (lower RQ).
