Supramaximal test results of male and female speed skaters with particular reference to methodological problems.
Article in European journal of applied physiology and occupational physiology, 1988. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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
Six male and six female elite speed skaters were tested during two bicycle ergometer tests: a 30 s sprint test and a 2.5 min supra maximal test. During the 2.5 min test oxygen consumption was measured every 30 s. The males showed 30-31% higher mean power output values both during the sprint test (1103 versus 769 Watt) and during the 2.5 min test (570 versus 390 Watt). Maximal oxygen consumption was 31% higher for the males than for the females (5.10 versus 3.50 1.min-1). However, when expressed per kilogram lean body weight (LBM), power output and oxygen consumption was equal for both sexes. Differences between present and previous results are most likely due to methodological problems with the estimation of load during the supra maximal test. Subjects appear to experience difficulties in distributing their power output over the 2.5 min if they are tested for the first time. For experienced skaters and cyclists, fixed levels of 19 W.kgLBM-1 as initial load setting for the sprint test and 8 W.kg LBM-1 for the 2.5 min test are recommended.
