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

We combined ultrasound, EMG and dynamometry measurements to establish differences in neuromechanical adaptations following two resistance training programs of equal training volume, one involving a multi-joint exercise and the second a single-joint exercise. Twenty-four participants were divided into a squat group (SQG) and a leg extension group (LEG). Both groups performed ten weeks of training. Before and after the training protocol, muscle architecture of the knee extensors was quantified in vivo using an ultrasound apparatus. The vastus lateralis (VL) torque-fascicle length relationship was also obtained. The maximum isometric torque (Tmax), the maximum EMG activity and the optimal VL fascicle length (L
