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

Physical activity appears to be a strong determinant of the building of peak bone mass and the degree of bone mineralization in young adult males. This study aimed to describe the impact of volleyball (V), throwing athletes (TA), climbing (CL), snowboarding participation (SN), fracture history, hand grip strength (HGS), and body composition on forearm bone mineral density (BMD) in males. BMD, bone mass content (BMC), and T-score of the distal (dis) and proximal (prox) parts of the forearm were measured by the DXA technique. The CL and TA groups showed the highest BMD, BMC, and T-score dis and prox. In the TA group, a higher prevalence of normal BMD was found in the distal part of the forearm compared to V (by 6.7%), CL (by 15.4%), and SN (by 35.7%). In the CL group a higher prevalence of normal BMD was found in the proximal part of the forearm compared to V (by 12.4%), TA (by 6.8%), and SN (by 34.6%). The highest prevalence of low bone density was observed in the SN group. Covariance analysis revealed that body height and the type of sports competition significantly affected BMD in the distal region (adj. R
