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

The cardiovascular care of highly active individuals and competitive athletes has developed into an important focus within the field of sports medicine. An evolving understanding of exercise-induced cardiovascular remodeling in athletes has led to a more robust characterization of physiologic adaptation versus pathological dysfunction, but this distinction is often challenging due to diagnostic commonalities. Current data reflects sporting-focused analyses of mainly male athletes, which may not be easily applicable to the female athletic heart. Increasingly female-specific cardiac dimensional and physiologic data are starting to emerge from comparative studies that may be utilized to address this growing need, and further guide individualized care. Here, we review current literature evaluating female-specific cardiovascular adaptations of the athletic heart, and formulate a discussion on cardiac remodeling, cardiodiagnostic findings, etiologic mechanisms, limitations of currently available data, and direction for future research in the cardiovascular care of female athletes.
