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

Introduction: The purpose of this investigation was to characterize the physical and physiological profile of elite military divers. Methods: The profile included anthropometric (height, weight, fat free mass, fat mass, percent body fat), performance testing ( Results: Anthropometric and performance results presented as MEAN ± SE include: age: 28.0 ± 0.5 years; height: 70.7 ± 0.3 in (179.6 ± 0.8 cm); weight: 193.3 ± 2.0 lbs (87.9 ± 0.9 kg); body fat percentage: 18.2% ± 0.6%; Conclusion: The data presented herein indicate there are certain periods of training that elicit significant changes in testosterone and DHEA while cortisol remains stable throughout the training cycle. To our knowledge, this effort is the first to document changes in stress biomarkers over time in elite military divers.
