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

Objective: This study investigated changes in salivary biomarkers collected by oral rinsing during different phases of a standard professional football training, and how these changes correlated with perceived training intensity. Methods: This study included 28 professional football players. Saliva was collected by means of oral rinse with water. It was collected at three time-points during a single training session: before training, after warming-up, and after outdoor training. Players were asked to self-report the intensity of the training after each time-point on a scale from 1 to 10. The following biomarkers were measured: protein, carbohydrate and immunoglobulin-A (IgA) concentrations, and enzymatic activity of Results: Protein concentration increased during training ( Conclusions: This study shows that saliva composition changes in response to a regular football training session. These changes did not correlate with self-perceived intensity of training.
