Minimum Normalized Cycling Cadence to Increase Post-Cycling Gait Velocity.
Article in Journal of functional morphology and kinesiology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundPrevious research has shown that increasing cycling cadence can result in improved post-cycling gait velocity. However, the specific threshold of cycling cadence required to bring about clinically meaningful changes in gait velocity remains unknown. This study aimed to determine the minimum increment in cycling cadence that would lead to a significant improvement in post-cycling gait velocity.
methodsA total of 42 young adults participated in our study and were randomly assigned to one of three groups: TEN, TWENTY, and THIRTY. Each group was assigned to cycle at a cadence at the corresponding percentage higher than the participant's self-selected gait cadence. Each participant engaged in a 15-min cycling session at their respective assigned cycling cadence. Before and after cycling, participants completed a 10-meter walk test while spatiotemporal parameters of gait, ground reaction forces, lower extremity kinematics, and kinetics were recorded.
resultsOne-way ANOVA revealed no statistically significant changes in spatiotemporal, ground reaction force, kinematics, and kinetics variables pre- and post-cycling. However, there were both statistically significant (F(2,41) = 3.794,
conclusionsThis suggests that a cycling cadence of 30% or higher is the minimum requirement to produce a clinically significant improvement in gait velocity.
