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

backgroundThis study analyzed the time allocation characteristics of 24-h movement behaviors among firefighter cadets, clarified their independent associations with physical fitness performance, and identified key predictors of physical fitness using compositional data analysis.

methodsA total of 333 fire academy cadets (326 males, 7 females) from five specialty directions were recruited. ActiGraph GT3X-BT accelerometers were used to objectively measure 24-h movement behaviors over seven consecutive days. Isometric log-ratio (ILR) transformation was applied to compositional time-use data, and bidirectional stepwise regression based on AIC was used to identify key predictors. Robustness checks included bootstrap resampling, 10-fold cross-validation, leave-one-out sensitivity analysis, and influence diagnostics.

resultsThe optimal model (F = 14.46,

conclusionsDemographic and physical characteristics, rather than 24-h movement composition, are the primary predictors of physical fitness performance in this highly structured training population. The sex-related finding is exploratory and sample-specific due to the small female subsample. These findings provide evidence-based guidance for physical fitness training program design in fire academies and similar structured training environments.
