Impact of recreational football in men with prostate cancer undergoing androgen deprivation therapy.

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
Objectives: To evaluate the effects of supervised recreational football-based exercise intervention on physical functioning, cardiovascular and metabolic health, bone strength and quality of life in men with PCa receiving ADT. Materials and Methods: Men with locally advanced or metastatic PCa undergoing ADT were allocated to a supervised recreational football-based exercise programme. Patients were invited to participate in 2-3 one-hour weekly sessions for 8 months and encouraged to participate in at least 2 session/week. Outcomes were physical functioning (postural balance, agility, muscle strength and aerobic capacity), blood pressure, lipid profile (LDL-cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol, total-cholesterol and triglycerides), glucose, glycated haemoglobin (HbA1C) and high sensitivity C-reactive protein (CRP), proximal femoral and lumbar spine (L2-L4) bone mineral density (BMD) and quality of life (EORTC QLQ-C30 and QLQ-PR25). Descriptive and inferential statistical analysis was performed using the IBM® SPSS® Statistics version 29 software. Results: From September to October 2022, 23 interested patients were screened and 12 were included and completed the supervised recreational football-based exercise programme. A significant improvement in aerobic capacity was recorded, with the patients improving the distances walked over 6 minutes (580.0 vs. 537.5, Conclusions: Men with PCa undergoing ADT experience side effects that, when combined with the physical inactivity and poor fitness often seen in these patients, may heighten their risk of cardiovascular and metabolic complications. A recreational football-based exercise programme can be implemented to improve physical fitness, aerobic capacity, systolic blood pressure and quality of life.
