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

The primary aim of this study was to assess lower limb stiffness in healthy runners over the course of a 10 km race at a competitive pace, with a secondary focus on investigating the tissue-specific changes in stiffness of lower limb structures during the running event. Twenty participants (3 women and 17 men) were recruited for this study. Passive stiffness measurements were assessed on the Achilles tendon, medial gastrocnemius, patellar tendon, and plantar fascia using a myotonometry device. Measurements were recorded before, during, and after the 10 k run. Our findings reveal a moderate decrease of 7% (
