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

Background: Little information is available regarding the TL and training practices of competitive athletes who are solid-organ recipients. This study characterized TL and practices of competitive organ-recipients at the British and World Transplant Games, 2017. Methods: Questionnaire data was gathered from 220 participants regarding sporting events and type, frequency, duration and intensity of training sessions undertaken. TL for each training session (session duration × session rating of perceived exertion [RPE]) and total TL were determined. Results: Overall participants trained 5 ± 3 times per week at an RPE of 5 ± 2 AU for between 60 and 75 min per session (TL ∼1,500-1,875 AU). Most participants ( Conclusion: The wide range of TL and components undertaken by athletes with solid-organ transplants likely reflects the multiple and diverse event participation of competitive organ-recipients as well as the diverse physical fitness profiles and incentives to participate. Optimization of TL both for multiple competitive sports and maintenance of health should be considered for these athletes.
