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

The investigation of the neuromuscular components of fatigue in team sports, especially in developmental ages, is limited. This study aimed to examine the neuromuscular fatigue and recovery patterns in prepubertal and adult female handball players, focusing on the soleus (SOL) and tibialis anterior (TA) muscles. Fifteen prepubertal (11.1 ± 0.9 years) and fourteen adult (22.0 ± 3.4 years) females performed a sustained isometric plantar flexion at 25% of maximal voluntary contraction (MVC) until exhaustion. The electromyographic (EMG) activity of the SOL and TA, torque, and central activation ratio (CAR) were recorded throughout the experiment. Endurance time was similar between groups (girls: 104 ± 93.5 s; women: 94.4 ± 30.2 s,
