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

Background and study aim: Combat sports involve repeated high-intensity efforts separated by short recovery periods, creating substantial demands on aerobic function and recovery. However, little is known about whether resting metabolic and redox-related biomarkers are associated with cardiorespiratory fitness in combat sport athletes. This pilot cross-sectional study examined the associations of resting plasma adenosine triphosphate (ATP), total antioxidant capacity (T-AOC), superoxide dismutase (SOD), malondialdehyde (MDA), and glutathione peroxidase (GPX) with maximal oxygen uptake (VO Materials and methods: Resting venous blood samples were collected once after at least 8 h of fasting and before a graded treadmill exercise test; no post-exercise samples were obtained. Cardiorespiratory fitness was evaluated using a graded treadmill exercise test, with VO Results: Twenty-one combat sport athletes were included. Mean VO Conclusions: Combat sport athletes in this pilot sample demonstrated high cardiorespiratory fitness. In this pilot sample, resting T-AOC showed the most consistent positive association with VO
