Oral pyruvate prevents high-intensity interval exercise-induced metabolic acidosis in rats by promoting lactate dehydrogenase reaction.
Article in Frontiers in nutrition, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Introduction: There is no denying the clinical benefits of exogenous pyruvate in the treatment of pathological metabolic acidosis. However, whether it can prevent exercise physiological metabolic acidosis, delay the occurrence of exercise fatigue, and improve the beneficial effects of exercise and its internal mechanism remain unclear. Methods: We randomly divided 24 male SD rats into 3 groups: one group was a control without exercise (CC, Results: Pyruvate supplementation significantly reversed the decrease of pHe, BE, HCO Discussion: This study provides compelling evidence that oral pyruvate attenuates HIIE-induced intracellular and extracellular acidification, possibly due to increased activity of LDHA, which promotes the absorption of H
