Effects of endurance training on cardiorespiratory fitness and substrate partitioning in postmenopausal women.
Trial report in Metabolism: clinical and experimental, 2009. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 19 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
We examined the effect of endurance training on energy substrate partitioning during rest and exercise in postmenopausal women. Ten healthy sedentary (55 +/- 1 years old) subjects completed 12 weeks of endurance exercise training on a cycle ergometer (5 d/wk, 1 h/d, 65% peak oxygen consumption [Vo(2)peak]). Whole-body energy substrate oxidation was determined by indirect calorimetry during 90 minutes of rest and 60 minutes of cycle ergometer exercise. Subjects were studied at 65% Vo(2)peak before training and after training at the same absolute exercise intensity (same absolute workload as 65% of pretraining Vo(2)peak) and same relative exercise intensity (65% of posttraining Vo(2)peak). After training, Vo(2)peak increased by 16.3% +/- 3.9% and resting heart rate decreased by 4 beats per minute (P < .05). During exercise at same absolute intensity, mean arterial pressure decreased by 8 mm Hg (P < .05), heart rate decreased by 19 beats per minute (P < .05), energy derived from carbohydrate decreased by 9.6%, and the energy derived from lipid increased by 9.2% (P < .05). Lactate concentration was lower at the same absolute and relative exercise intensities (P < .05). Changes in substrate partitioning during exercise were accomplished without changes in dietary composition, body weight, or body composition. We conclude that endurance training in healthy postmenopausal women who remain in energy balance results in many of the classic cardiopulmonary training effects, decreases the reliance on carbohydrate, and increases lipid oxidation during a given submaximal exercise task without a reduction in body weight.
