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 susceptibility of athletes to long-term adverse outcomes following recurrent concussion remains controversial. Acute concussion precipitates a transient reduction in cerebral blood flow (CBF) that typically returns to pre-injury levels. Recent work suggests that long-term CBF alterations may be sex-specific. We assessed whether concussion history was associated with chronic CBF alterations and whether sex moderated this relationship in otherwise healthy, active collegiate-aged athletes. Collegiate-aged athletes from the community (N = 204, 37.8% female, M
