Case Report: Effects of a simulated jiu-jitsu fight on hematological, biochemical, and electrolyte responses in athletes with transfemoral amputation: a multiple-case study.

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
Background: Blood tests are commonly performed in sporting contexts to screen for possible medical conditions associated with physical performance. This study aimed to: i) investigate the effects of jiu-jitsu fighting on cell damage; and ii) monitor acute hematological patterns. Methods: Blood samples were collected from three middle-aged men, with transfemoral amputation, practitioners of jiu-jitsu parasport at a professional level, before and after a simulated fight, to screen for possible medical conditions that could compromise performance and cause sports injuries. Ethical aspects were respected. The following analyses were performed: blood count, markers of muscle damage, electrolytes, and analysis of iron stores. Results: Ferritin levels were above reference values for two participants, even before the simulated fight. Urea and creatinine were within reference values. The other hematological variables also increased, but remained within the reference limits considered normal. Electrolyte concentrations (Na, K, Cl -, and Mg) showed significant changes in K and Mg after the simulated fight ( Conclusions: It is concluded that the simulated fight led to alterations in all observed parameters, even though the majority of values remained within limits considered normal.
