Modeling muscle function using experimentally determined subject-specific muscle properties.
Article in Journal of biomechanics, 2021. 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
Muscle models are commonly based on intrinsic properties pooled across a number of individuals, often from a different species, and rarely validated against directly measured muscle forces. Here we use a rich data set of rat medial gastrocnemius muscle forces recorded during in-situ and in-vivo isometric, isotonic, and cyclic contractions to test the accuracy of forces predicted using Hill-type muscle models. We identified force-length and force-velocity parameters for each individual, and used either these subject-specific intrinsic properties, or population-averaged properties within the models. The modeled forces for cyclic in-vivo and in-situ contractions matched with measured muscle-tendon forces with r
