1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

purposeTo explore the potential relationship between salivary amino acid concentrations and 8 km running performance in male undergraduate students.

methodsThirty male undergraduate students were recruited. Participants completed an 8 km run while wearing smart bracelets. Saliva samples were collected before, immediately after, and 24 h after the run. Ultra-High Performance Liquid Chromatography (UHPLC) was used to quantify salivary amino acids.

resultsThe fast group (average speed > 12.80 km/h) had a significantly shorter running time (35.66 ± 1.30 min,

conclusionsThis study found a positive correlation between salivary threonine and 8 km running speed, along with differences in serine and glutamine concentrations among runners with different speeds. These findings provide preliminary evidence for the relationship between salivary amino acid concentrations and running performance, though further research with larger samples and diverse exercise types is needed.
