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

Both the countermovement jump (CMJ) and the isometric mid-thigh pull (IMTP) are frequently used performance tests to monitor neuromuscular fatigue and recovery after exhaustive physical activities. However, to date, neither the reliability nor the validity of the CMJ and IMTP performed after the cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) has been studied. Thus, this study primarily aimed to investigate the intrasession relative and absolute reliability of the CMJ and IMTP when performed after the CPET. Second, the study aimed to examine the discriminative validity of the CMJ and IMTP performed after the CPET by differentiating between elite male and female athletes. Twenty-eight female (26.8 ± 6.6 years) and seventeen male (23.8 ± 3.5 years) elite Swedish athletes voluntarily participated in the study. Protocols included anthropometric measurements, a cycle ergometer-based CPET (i.e., VO
