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

Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of brief cryostimulation of the soles of the feet on exercise performance, thermoregulation, and cardiovascular function during an inter-exercise rest period in a hot environment. Methods: Eight physically active and healthy adults (6 males, 2 females; mean age: 24.89 ± 3.10 years) participated in this randomized crossover self-controlled study. To determine exercise intensity, the maximal oxygen uptake ( Results: Time to exhaustion was significantly longer in the Sole-Cryo condition compared to the CON condition (CON: 3.23 ± 1.07 min vs. Sole-Cryo:3.92 ± 1.10 min, Conclusions: Brief cryostimulation interventions applied to the soles during rest periods in a hot environment did not significantly affect core body temperature or the cardiovascular system. However, it lowered T
