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 purpose of the study was to compare physiological and performance responses during surface and underwater fin swimming. Thirteen male, elite fin swimmers performed four repetitions of 50-m sprints using a monofin (4 x 50 m) either on surface (S) or underwater with apnea (U). Performance time and the number of lower body kicks were recorded during 4 x 50-m sprints. Lactate was evaluated before the start, after the second and the fourth sprint and five minutes into recovery. The heart rate was measured continuously and respiratory function was recorded before and after each condition. Performance time was shorter and kicking frequency was higher in U compared to S (17.73 ± 1.18 vs. 19.94 ± 1.41 s, 135 ± 18 vs. 121 ± 15 kicks∙min
