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 level of balance can play an essential role in a soldier's performance. For a Special Forces soldier, the footwear used or extra weight may be important factors affecting their balance level during combat operations or trainings. Therefore, the purpose of the study was to assess the level of static balance of Special Forces Operators and to determine the influence of select elements of a soldier's combat uniform and equipment on balance levels. The study group consisted of 37 Polish Special Forces Operators. To assess the level of static balance, the Romberg test was used in three variants (barefoot, with shoes, and with shoes, helmet, and vest). The measurements were made using the AMTI AccuGait portable force platform. The results of the analysis showed that the calculated average values of selected static balance parameters of soldiers differed depending on the variant of the Romberg test used, and in most cases, those differences were statistically significant (
