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

Introduction: Traumatic brain injury (TBI) often leads to lasting impairments in physical performance, yet its impact on aerobic function and the potential for recovery through exercise remain poorly understood. In this study, we used a well-established controlled cortical impact (CCI) model in mice to address three gaps in the preclinical TBI literature: the effect of injury on voluntary activity and energy metabolism, the extent to which exercise tolerance and cardiorespiratory fitness can be restored through moderate-intensity aerobic training, and whether these responses differ between sexes. Methods: Voluntary wheel running and metabolic outputs following CCI were quantified via the Comprehensive Lab Animal Monitoring System (CLAMS), while maximal oxygen uptake (VO Results: Both sexes displayed similar acute reductions in VO Discussion: These findings reveal a divergence in post-TBI exercise responsiveness and highlight the need for sex-specific, physiology-guided rehabilitation strategies.
