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

In the management of overweight, the implementation of exercise helps to create a caloric deficit and to lose weight. Several studies have shown poor reporting quality of exercise interventions for other diseases. Thus, the purpose of this study was to assess the completeness of exercise intervention reporting in randomized controlled trials (RCTs) for the treatment of overweight and to evaluate potential differences between exercise modalities. Two independent reviewers applied two intervention reporting guidelines to 47 RCTs on the management of overweight. The completeness of intervention reporting was evaluated using descriptive statistics. Potential differences in reporting quality between studies using aerobic exercise (AE) vs. studies using combined aerobic and resistance exercise (ARE) were calculated with a χ
