Article in European journal of applied physiology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT05690295 (Comparison of the Effects of Prolonged Resistance-type Exercise Training Between Healthy Postmenopausal Women Versus Postmenopausal Women Survivors of Breast Cancer), which is not on this map.

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.

Abstract

purposeThis exploratory study aimed to examine the potential effects of a 12-week progressive whole-body resistance exercise training (RET) program on measured submaximal oxygen consumption (submaximal VO

methodsTwenty-four postmenopausal women (Healthy, HEA; 54 ± 3 years; BMI 26.6 ± 2.7 kg·m

resultsTwelve-week RET improved the distance covered in the 6MWT by 10 ± 11% in the HEA group (from 586.6 ± 27.9 to 642.9 ± 35.9 m) and by 6 ± 16% in the BCS group (from 572.9 ± 62.6 to 604.7 ± 39.9 m) (P < 0.001; η

conclusionAs an exploratory analysis, these findings suggest that a 12-week RET program improved work efficiency and reduced measured submaximal VO TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER: NCT05690295.
