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
Strenuous physical training increases total blood volume (BV) through expansion of plasma volume (PV) and red cell volume (RCV). In contrast, exogenous erythropoietin (EPO) treatment increases RCV but decreases PV, rendering BV stable or slightly decreased. This study aimed to determine the combined effects of strenuous training and EPO treatment on BV and markers of systemic and muscle iron homeostasis. In this longitudinal study, eight healthy nonanemic males were treated with EPO (50 IU/kg body mass, three times per week, sc) across 28 days of strenuous training (4 days/wk, exercise energy expenditures of 1,334 ± 24 kcal/day) while consuming a controlled, energy-balanced diet providing 39 ± 4 mg/day iron. Before (PRE) and after (POST) intervention, BV compartments were measured using carbon monoxide rebreathing, and markers of iron homeostasis were assessed in blood and skeletal muscle (vastus lateralis). Training + EPO increased (
