Symptom clusters and resting cardiovascular autonomic measures in adolescents: From acute concussion to recovery.
Article in Physiological reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
Sport-related concussion (SRC) is associated with cardiovascular autonomic nervous system (ANS) dysfunction. This study examines resting cardiovascular ANS activity in adolescents with SRC compared to controls early post-injury and after clinical recovery, analyzing its correlation with symptom severity and recovery outcomes. Cardiovascular ANS function was evaluated using heart rate variability (HRV), systolic blood pressure variability (SBPV) and baroreflex sensitivity (BRS). Symptoms were assessed via the Post-Concussion Symptom Scale, and recovery outcomes were categorized by recovery duration. Following acute SRC, no significant differences in HRV, SBPV or BRS were found between SRC and control groups, nor between those with delayed or normal recovery. Post-recovery, SRC participants had higher low frequency (LF) SBPV than controls and their initial assessment. When concussed participants were symptomatic, LF SBPV correlated directly with overall, cognitive, and fatigue symptom severity, while high frequency (HF) HRV inversely correlated with affective symptoms (Spearman's rho: 0.4-0.6). Resting cardiovascular ANS function remains unchanged in adolescent athletes acutely after SRC, suggesting it has limited diagnostic and prognostic potential. Although some correlations between individual symptom domains and ANS activity were observed, they were not significantly different from asymptomatic controls, limiting the ability to interpret these findings.
