Salivary Metabolite Variation After High-Intensity Rowing Training and Potential Biomarker Screening for Exercise-Induced Muscle Damage.
Article in Metabolites, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
backgroundExercise-induced muscle damage (EIMD) is the most common health risk in training. So far, EIMD diagnosis predominantly relies on blood biochemical analysis or medical imaging. EIMD prediction by using saliva shows great prospects in public fitness.
methodsA total of 18 participants performed high-intensity rowing training. Blood biochemical indicator and pain analyses indicated EIMD occurrence. Pseudo-targeted metabolomics techniques were utilized to analyze changes in salivary metabolites after exercise.
resultsA total of 43 salivary metabolites significantly increased while 31 salivary metabolites significantly decreased after exercise. The upregulated metabolites were related to hormone secretion, antioxidation, and muscle repair. A partial least squares discriminant analysis model was established, and three potential salivary biomarkers for EIMD prediction were screened. The sensitivity and specificity of single biomarkers achieved more than 88.9% and 94.4% in classification of EIMD occurrence, respectively. The accuracy of classification increased to ~100% with multiple metabolites.
conclusionSalivary metabolites significantly changed after high-intensity rowing training and EIMD occurrence. Some salivary metabolites exhibited similar trends with blood biochemical indicators. Salivary biomarkers have great prospects in EIMD prediction, and better performance was achieved with multiple salivary metabolites.
