Maximizing muscle deoxygenation during interval training in middle-distance runners.
Article in European journal of applied physiology, 2026. 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
The present study aimed to investigate which of two commonly performed running interval sessions elicited the greatest magnitude of and time spent with elevated muscle deoxygenation in trained middle-distance runners. Thirteen trained middle-distance runners (22.4 ± 3.2 y; 63.1 ± 10.9 kg; n = 9 males) participated in the study. Subjects completed a field-based incremental running test and two interval sessions. The interval sessions comprised a 6 × 1 km and a 15 × 400 m interval session, both with 1 min passive recovery periods. Both sessions were implemented with the aim of achieving the maximal sustainable pace for each repetition, while mean speed, heart rate, RPE, blood lactate concentration and muscle deoxygenation responses were monitored. Mean speed during the interval repetitions was significantly higher during the 400 m intervals (~ 5.63 ± 0.35 m·s
