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

One of the solutions to decrease the frequency of sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) in athletes is cardiovascular screening in the form of pre-participation tests (PPT). It is especially frustrating when SCA affects an athlete who has recently undergone PPT without any alarming findings. In our case, a 44-year-old ambitious amateur duathlete who underwent PPT within a year experienced SCA at home after an intensive weekend of training. It was related to a coincidence of new disease and other risk factors. PPT cannot be viewed as an unconditional green light for training and competition.
