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

This article synthesizes recent developments in Paralympic Health, covering not only the conceptual evolution that supports athletes with disabilities in Paralympic sports but also the impact of scientific advances on health care and on the classification system, training, and competition. The Paralympic Games are not only a competitive event but also a driving force behind the development of assistive technology and the generation of knowledge about physical exercise for individuals with disabilities. Sports classification, based on increasing scientific evidence, is being consolidated by applying the impairment concept to three major groups: physical, vision, and intellectual. The most significant development in recent editions of the Games is epidemiological monitoring, which has made it possible to reduce the incidence of health problems. The interdisciplinary development of health based on science is fundamental in guaranteeing opportunity and equity for people with disabilities in Paralympic sports.
