1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundMader's mathematical model, widely employed for endurance performance prediction, aims to accurately represent metabolic response to exercise. However, it traditionally overlooks dynamic changes in metabolic processes at varying movement velocities.

methodsThis narrative review examined the effect of cycling cadence on its key input parameters, including oxygen demand per Watt (

resultsA U-shaped relationship was found between cadence and both

conclusionNeglecting dynamic changes in metabolic processes across different movement velocities can lead to inaccurate modelling results. Incorporating cadence alongside established parameters enhances the precision of Mader's metabolic model for cycling performance prediction.
