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

Aging induces sarcopenia and reduces bone mineral density, altering body composition. These modifications contribute to physical decline, increase non-communicable disease risk and increase the likelihood of hospitalization, thereby representing a substantial public health burden. In this study, we assessed the effects of isometric training with neuromuscular electrical stimulation conditioning contractions (ISO-NMES) and dynamic resistance training (DRT) on physical and functional capacities. Moreover, we investigated the impact of ISO-NMES training on the force and power of the trained and untrained leg. Eighteen sessions of ISO-NMES training for knee extensors were performed by 10 older adults (age: 70.1 ± 4.9 years; ISO-NMES group). The DRT group (
