Brief report of core temperature patterns in triathletes while swimming in warm open water with and without a wetsuit.
Article in International journal of exercise science, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
This exploratory study investigated the effects of wetsuit use on core temperature patterns in triathletes in warm open water swimming (27.9-28.3°C).
methodsParticipants (males (2), females (2), 49.5±7.8 years, body fat 16.3±5.56%) completed two 700-meter open water swims at self-selected submaximal paces: 1) wearing a full sleeve wetsuit (WS) and 2) no wetsuit (NWS). Core temperature was measured using an ingestible temperature pill (sample rate: 15-seconds). To explore the core temperature vs. time patterns, each data set was fit with a 1
resultsSwim performance was faster in the WS condition (742.5±148.2 s) vs. NWS condition (907.5±246.6 s) (p=0.02). For core temperature vs. time patterns, of the 8 data sets (i.e., four participants, two conditions), there was general improvement with the line of best fit in at least 5 data sets using the 2
conclusionOverall, inspection of the residuals seems to indicate that the linear or nonlinear rate of change of core temperature is individualized. Furthermore, there was no risk of hyperthermia in either condition.
