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

The aim of the current study was to examine whether weekly dynamic stress load (DSL) volume could be associated with competition internal and external load outcomes in professional soccer players. Weekly DSL volume was recorded across standardized one-match microcycles. Match outcomes included total distance covered (TDC), high-speed running distance (HSRD), sprint distance (SPRD), high-intensity accelerations (HIACC), high-intensity decelerations (HIDEC), high-metabolic-load distance (HMLD), time spent > 85% of maximum heart rate (HRmax), and Edwards training impulse (Edwards' TRIMP). Analyses of our results revealed that higher weekly DSL volume was associated with greater time > 85%HRmax in the first half (β = 0.00647;
