A gluten-free diet does not alter performance outcomes in nonceliac athletes undergoing sprint interval training: a pilot trial.

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
Introduction: The popularity of gluten-free diets (GFD) among athletes has increased due to perceived benefits for performance, well-being, and body composition, despite limited evidence in non-celiac individuals. Methods: This parallel-group pilot study evaluated the effects of a 6-week GFD vs. a mixed diet (MD), both combined with sprint interval training (SIT), on metabolic and performance-related parameters in 15 male endurance athletes (GFD: Results: The GFD group achieved significant reductions in weight and BMI compared to the MD group (Δweight: GFD: -2.70 [-3.20 to -1.73] kg vs. MD: -0.30 [-1.75 to 1.35] kg, Conclusion: Although a GFD showed modest benefits for weight management and aerobic performance, its metabolic effects were variable, and challenges with nutritional deficiencies highlight the need for caution in non-celiac athletes.
