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

aims/hypothesisThe aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that exercise in cool water results in a greater decrease in blood glucose concentration than in thermoneutral water or on land in individuals with type 1 diabetes.

methodsEight overnight-fasted individuals (aged 18-40 years) with type 1 diabetes completed 3 × 60 min cycling sessions on an ergometer at 40% of their on-land

resultsBlood glucose concentration did not change in response to cycling while immersed in cool or thermoneutral water (p>0.05) but decreased during cycling on land (p<0.05). The concentration of plasma insulin decreased during and early after cycling in cool water (p<0.05). During 60 min of on-land recovery (at 24°C) after cycling in cool water, blood glucose concentration increased significantly (~2 mmol/l, p<0.05), but not after cycling in thermoneutral water or on-land.
