Exploring the Rating of Perceived Exertion in the First Repetition (RPE-1) on Post-Activation Performance Enhancement in Trained Individuals: A Pilot Study.
Article in Sports (Basel, Switzerland), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
(1) Background: Limited research has examined elastic resistance preconditioning effects on post-activation performance enhancement (PAPE) using the rate of perceived exertion (RPE) as an intensity indicator. This pilot study aimed to evaluate the application of RPE to the elastic resistance push-press (ERPP) exercise performed at maximum velocity for its effects on PAPE. (2) Methods: Twenty-four trained, healthy young adults participated in this study and performed both a conventional warm-up and a warm-up combined with six repetitions of an elastic resistance push-press (ERPP) at 85% 1RM/RPE of the first repetition (RPE-1) of 6 out of 10. The pre-post variables assessed were push-ups, a countermovement jump (CMJ), and 10 and 20 m sprints. A repeated-measures ANOVA was conducted. Additionally, between-subject variability was adjusted for individual performance. (3) Results: In the push-up, a significant improvement (
