Prolonged Humid Heat Triggers Systemic Inflammation and Stress Signaling: Fluid Intake Modulates NF-κB, p38, JNK2, and STAT3α Pathways.

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
Prolonged exposure to extreme humid heat can induce systemic inflammation, organ stress, and hormonal imbalance. While fluid replacement is commonly recommended, its mechanistic efficacy under humid heat stress remains unclear. This study investigated the impact of fluid intake on thermoregulation, inflammation, organ function, and stress signaling during 8 h of humid heat exposure (ambient temperature: 40 °C, relative humidity: 55%) in 32 healthy young adults (20 males and 12 females). Participants completed two randomized trials: limited fluid intake (LFI, 125 mL/h) and full fluid intake (FFI, 375 mL/h). Core temperature (
