The relationship between physical fitness and somatosensory brain responses in adolescents-a pilot study.

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
Introduction: This study examined whether physical fitness is associated with somatosensory brain responses during puberty, using somatosensory evoked potentials (SEPs) and anthropometric/physical fitness indices. Methods: Sixteen boys and twenty girls participated. Height, weight, 50-m sprint, standing long jump, grip strength, sit-ups, sit and reach, side steps, and ball throw were assessed. SEPs were elicited by electrical stimulation of the right median nerve (3 Hz). Data from Fz and C3' were analyzed. Peak-to-peak amplitudes were measured for N15, P18, and N30 at Fz and for N18, P22, N27, P45, and N60 at C3'. Correlations were tested between physical fitness measures (including total score) and SEP amplitudes. Results: In boys, the Fz N30 amplitude was correlated with total score ( Conclusion: Significant associations were observed between specific physical fitness components and somatosensory SEP amplitudes in adolescents, with distinct patterns identified in boys and girls. These findings indicate that somatosensory brain responses are related to physical fitness during puberty.
