Acute Kidney Injury Associated With Dehydration Protocol Used by Combat Sports Athletes.
Article in Translational sports medicine, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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 increase in combat sports practice and the creation of weight divisions for fairer competitions led to dehydration practice as a strategy of inclusion in inferior divisions. However, this technique can damage kidney and heart functions due to alterations in blood volume. This study evaluated the acute effects of weight loss through dehydration on the kidney function of Mixed Martial Arts and Muay Thai fighters. The sample was composed of 30 athletes of both Mixed Martial Arts (
