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

[Purpose] To characterize oxygenated hemoglobin (O₂Hb), deoxygenated hemoglobin (HHb), total hemoglobin (THb), and muscle oxygen saturation (StO₂) changes in the upper and lower limb muscles during moderate-intensity upper limb crank exercise. [Methods] Fifteen healthy males (mean age, height, and weight: 21.1 ± 0.4 years, 172.2 ± 5.9 cm, and 63.3 ± 8.0 kg, respectively) were recruited. The experimental protocol consisted of a 4-min rest, 4-min warm-up, and 20-min constant-load exercise, followed by 10 min of post-exercise rest. O₂Hb, HHb, THb, and StO₂ of the triceps (TR), vastus lateralis (VL), and gastrocnemius muscles (GM) were measured using near-infrared spectroscopy. Changes from rest (ΔO
