Blood lactate accumulation during maximal cycling sprints and its relationship to sprint performance characteristics.
Article in European journal of applied physiology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
purposeBlood lactate accumulation (ΔBLC) during maximal short-term exercise is a crucial indicator of peak glycolytic activation in anaerobic performance assessment. However, the relationship between ΔBLC and sprint performance remains inconsistent, potentially due to variations in testing protocols and the use of absolute rather than relative performance metrics. This study investigated the relationship between ΔBLC and cycling sprint performance, hypothesizing normalization to body weight is essential for accurate metabolic performance evaluation.
methodsTwenty-two trained male athletes performed a 10-s maximal isokinetic cycling sprint on an ergometer. Power output and cadence were continuously recorded to calculate peak power (P
resultsΔBLC exhibited significant correlations with body-weight-normalized maxΔP (r = 0.78, p < 0.001), P
