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

Exercise and short-term fasting may have positive effects on psychological health. The aim of this study was to investigate effects of combining daily time restricted feeding and aerobic exercise on longer-term psychological health parameters. Fifty-two participants were randomised into three groups. (1) Training sessions were performed in the fasted state. (2) Training sessions were performed after consuming a standardised carbohydrate-based snack. (3) Exercise training with an ad libitum diet as a control group. The 8-week intervention consisted of daily time restricted feeding (16/8h) for both fasting groups and 3x/week à 60-min aerobic training (∼73% of maximal heartrate) for all groups. Data were collected during pre- and post-test using psychological questionnaires. A 3x2 mixed ANOVA with repeated measures was used to analyse pre to post differences. Thirty-six participants were included in the analyses. No group-by-time interactions were found in any of the investigated parameters, suggesting that fasting groups showed similar effects as the control group. Significant main effects indicate increases in the positive subdomain of the Positive and Negative Affective Scale (p = 0.033; η
