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

This study systematically examined the role of work rate (WR) increment on the kinetics of pulmonary oxygen uptake (VO(2p)) and near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS)-derived muscle deoxygenation (Δ[HHb]) during moderate-intensity (Mod) cycling. Fourteen males (24 ± 5 years) each completed four to eight repetitions of Mod transitions from 20 to 50, 70, 90, 110 and 130 W. VO(2p) and Δ[HHb] responses were modelled as a mono-exponential; responses were then scaled to a relative % of the respective response (0-100 %). The Δ[HHb]/VO(2) ratio was calculated as the average Δ[HHb]/VO(2) during the 20-120 s period of the on-transient. When considered as a single group, neither the phase II VO(2p) time constant (τVO(2p); 27 ± 9, 26 ± 11, 25 ± 10, 27 ± 14, 29 ± 13 s for 50-130 W transitions, respectively) nor the Δ[HHb]/VO(2) ratio (1.04 ± 0.13, 1.10 ± 0.13, 1.08 ± 0.07, 1.09 ± 0.11, 1.09 ± 0.09, respectively) was affected by WR (p > 0.05); yet, the VO(2) functional gain (G; ΔVO(2)/ΔWR) increased with increasing WR transitions (8.6 ± 1.3, 9.1 ± 1.2, 9.5 ± 1.0, 9.5 ± 1.0, 9.9 ± 1.0 mL min(-1) W(-1); p < 0.05). When subjects were stratified into two groups [Fast (n = 6), τVO(2p130W) < 25 s < τVO(2p130W), Slower (n = 8)], a group by WR interaction was observed for τVO(2p). The increasing functional G persisted (p < 0.05) and did not differ between groups (p > 0.05). The Δ[HHb]/VO(2) ratio was smaller (p < 0.05) in the Fast than Slower group, but was unaffected by WR. In conclusion, the present study demonstrated (1) a non-uniform effect of Mod WR increment on τVO(2p); (2) that τVO(2p) in the Slower group is likely determined by an O(2) delivery limitation; and (3) that increasing Mod WR increments elicits an increased functional G, regardless of the τVO(2p) response.
