Evaluating athletic mental energy analysis: a novel approach using fuzzy-based Bayesian networks.
Article in BMC sports science, medicine & rehabilitation, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundThis paper focuses on the impact of physical and psychological conditions on athletes' mental energy, which is a serious concern in terms of performance and overall health and seeks to evaluate this problem by identifying its causes.
methodA Fuzzy Bayesian Network (FBN) model is therefore created to provide an approach for determining the factors and weights to be considered by coaches and sports scientists when assessing the causes of mental fatigue in athletes.
resultAs a result of the research process, a model for evaluating the factors affecting athletic mental energy was developed, and probabilistic relationships between physical and psychological causes were established. The analysis of the model indicates that physical fitness (10.9%), fatigue (10.4%), and nutrient intake (10.2%) are the three most significant root causes affecting athletic mental energy. In addition, the most obvious finding to emerge from this study is that the factors affecting athletic mental energy are closely related to both physical state and psychological state processes. Taken together, the results indicate that physical condition variables are too important to be overlooked in effectively enhancing athletes' mental energy.
conclusionConsequently, In conclusion, the FBN model developed for this study is considered to provide a comprehensive probabilistic analysis of the interactions between physical and psychological factors, and to serve as an important guide in identifying new ways to enhance athletes' mental energy.
