Muscle Metabolism and Performance During Simulated Peak-Intensity Periods Occurring Early and Late in a Soccer-Specific Exercise Protocol in Well-Trained Male Players.
Article in Scandinavian journal of medicine & science in sports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 2 of them syntheses 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
We applied a novel model mimicking the most intense 5-min game periods to investigate muscle metabolic and fatigue responses to peak-intensity exercise occurring early and late in a simulated soccer game. Eleven well-trained male players completed a modified simulated soccer game (the Copenhagen Soccer Test) with 5-min peak-intensity period simulations inserted early (PP1; 10-15 min) and late (PP2; 85-90 min) in the game. Muscle biopsies and blood samples were obtained before and after each peak period. Muscle glycogen decreased during both peak periods (p < 0.001) by 62 ± 46 mmol kg
