Erythemal UV radiation exposure during jogging.
Article in Photochemistry and photobiology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Jogging is one of the most popular recreational sport activities over four decades and is done at almost all ages to keep fitness and health. Joggers are exposed to solar UV radiation (UVR) and, due to enhanced heat production by physical activity, body coverage by clothes is reduced. This may imply a health risk due to overexposure. However, little research has been undertaken so far to estimate UVR exposure during jogging. Therefore, UVR exposure was measured at seven body sites during jogging under cloud-free conditions for solar elevations between 20° and 60°. Results show that the top of the shoulder is the most exposed body site by receiving 80% of ambient UVR on average and up to 110% under certain conditions. All other body parts receive up to 55% on average and up to 85% in special cases. This indicates further that monotonous body alignment to the sun holds a higher risk than a frequently alternating alignment. Assuming the longest recommended duration for cardiovascular beneficial jogging of 50 min, photosensitive persons need protection of the shoulders from a UV index of 2 onward on an unvaried path and from a UV index of 3 on an all-directional path. Further, results show that measurements of UVR exposure possess an uncertainty of ±15% including mounting.
