Neuromuscular factors predicting lower limb explosive strength in male college sprinters.
Article in Frontiers in physiology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Purpose: This study aimed to explore the effects of neural and muscular factors on lower limb explosive strength in male college sprinters, and build models based on those factors to identify the key neuromuscular factors that predict the rate of force development (RFD) and 30 m sprint time. Method: 15 male college sprinters were recruited in this study, with 100 m personal best times under 10.93 s. The neuromuscular data were collected by H-reflex and V-wave, isokinetic muscle strength, vertical jumps, and 30 m sprint tests. Pearson correlation and multiple stepwise regression were used for data analysis. The level of statistical significance was set at Results: 30 m sprint time had a significant moderate positive correlation with Achilles tendon stiffness ( Conclusion: This study found that V/MmaxA and HECC were predictive factors of 30 m sprint time, vertical stiffness and QECC were the predictive factors of RFD. Neural factors such as the α-motoneurons excitability of the spinal and supraspinal centers, have a greater influence on lower limb explosive strength in male college sprinters. Therefore, training related to the neural function of sprinters should be emphasized. In addition, H reflex and V wave can be used widely to assess and monitor the neural function of sprinters in future research. The impact of neural drive on muscles in different levels and sexes of sprinters, and the neuromuscular modulation during muscle contractions can be further explored.
