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

purposeSince the UK Armed Forces opened all combat roles to women in 2018, more female soldiers are carrying heavier loads for longer. This study investigated associations between aerobic capacity, strength, and lean mass and the demands of load carriage in women, and associations between load carriage demands and muscle fatigability.

methodsThirty-nine women (28 ± 4 y) had maximal rate of oxygen uptake (V̇O

resultsHigher V̇O

conclusionsAerobic capacity, lean mass, and knee extensor strength are potential targets in interventions to develop load carriage capacity in women.
