Fatigue and management of warfighter mental endurance.
Review in BMJ military health, 2025. 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
Mental fatigue (MF) is a psychobiological state induced by prolonged exertion that has the potential to reduce performance. In military operations, MF coincides with inadequate sleep, circadian disruption and other stressors, further increasing the risk of fatigue-related errors of judgement and reduction in physical and psychological performance. Experienced leaders can detect MF, but multimodal monitoring and assessment technologies still cannot duplicate this capability. Experiments to define signals that cue this human percept could inform future technologies. Countermeasures include engagement strategies, brain endurance training to extend physical endurance, and caffeine and modafinil to temporarily sustain performance. An infrastructure for physiological monitoring and integrated analyses will advance team performance enhancement, along with the use of explainable and interpretable artificial intelligence modelling, refined through iterative experimentation. More precise definitions that distinguish MF from other types of fatigue will help advance the development of monitoring technologies and countermeasures by targeting the right physiological and behavioural metrics.
