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

A history of bronchiolitis may lead to changes in health-related physical fitness in children and adolescents. The aim of this study was to analyze the influence of history of bronchiolitis on health-related physical fitness components (muscle strength and cardiorespiratory fitness) in children and adolescents. A cross-sectional study was conducted, and 86 participants (aged 7-14 years; all males) were divided into two groups: a group with (n = 40) and without (n = 46) history of bronchiolitis. Muscle strength was assessed with handgrip and isometric quadriceps strength tests with handheld dynamometers and the five-times sit-to-stand test. Cardiorespiratory fitness was assessed with the six-minute walk test (6MWT). The Mann-Whitney test was used to compare the health-related physical fitness tests between groups and the binary logistic regression model was used to estimate the potential risk or protective factors in participants. No significant differences were observed between the groups in muscle strength tests. Participants without bronchiolitis walked a greater distance in the 6MWT than those with bronchiolitis (
