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 main goal of the present study was to examine the effects of a high-velocity resistance training (HVRT) program on the force-velocity (F-V) profile of different groups of aging adults. An additional aim was to explore whether individual baseline F-V profiles were associated with training-induced improvements in muscle power and functional capacity. Middle-aged and older adults with and without mobility limitations (n = 36, 61 ± 13 years) completed a 12-week HVRT program (2 days/week, 40-60% 1-RM). F-V profiles were determined using leg press exercises at loads ranging from 30-90% 1-RM, and a linear position transducer. Functional capacity was assessed via maximal gait speed and 30-s Sit-to-Stand tests. HVRT significantly increased the theoretical maximal force (F
