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

Previous studies have suggested the recovery of phosphocreatine (PCr) after exercise is at least second-order in some conditions. Possible explanations for higher-order PCr recovery kinetics include heterogeneity of oxidative capacity among skeletal muscle fibers and ATP production via glycolysis contributing to PCr resynthesis. Ten human subjects (28 +/- 3 yr; mean +/- SE) performed gated plantar flexion exercise bouts consisting of one contraction every 3 s for 90 s (low-intensity) and three contractions every 3 s for 30 s (high-intensity). In a parallel gated study, the sciatic nerve of 15 adult male Sprague-Dawley rats was electrically stimulated at 0.75 Hz for 5.7 min (low intensity) or 5 Hz for 2.1 min (high intensity) to produce isometric contractions of the posterior hindlimb muscles. [(31)P]-MRS was used to measure relative [PCr] changes, and nonnegative least-squares analysis was utilized to resolve the number and magnitude of exponential components of PCr recovery. Following low-intensity exercise, PCr recovered in a monoexponential pattern in humans, but a higher-order pattern was typically observed in rats. Following high-intensity exercise, higher-order PCr recovery kinetics were observed in both humans and rats with an initial fast component (tau < 15 s) resolved in the majority of humans (6/10) and rats (5/8). These findings suggest that heterogeneity of oxidative capacity among skeletal muscle fibers contributes to a higher-order pattern of PCr recovery in rat hindlimb muscles but not in human triceps surae muscles. In addition, the observation of a fast component following high-intensity exercise is consistent with the notion that glycolytic ATP production contributes to PCr resynthesis during the initial stage of recovery.
