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 purpose of this study was to determine the feasibility of heart rate (HR) monitoring using an optical monitor (OHR) across different swimming strokes and intensities. Nineteen collegiate swimmers (7M, 12F) completed two swimming protocols (P1: nine 75m freestyle swims at three intensities, P2: two 100m swims using their preferred stroke). During P1, four swimming bouts were completed at light intensity (HR 145-155 beats per minute [bpm]), three at moderate intensity (HR 155-170bpm) and two at vigorous intensity (HR > 170bpm). During P2, participants completing one swimming bout using their preferred stroke (freestyle [n=7], backstroke [n=5], breast stroke [n=4], and butterfly [n=3]) at moderate intensity and one vigorous intensity with one-minute rest between each swim. A repeated measures ANOVA (RM ANOVA) with post hoc analysis was completed between the OHR and a traditional chest monitor (THR) with significance set at
