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

objectiveThe aim of this study was to examine how transcranial electrical stimulation (tES) modulates intermuscular coherence (IMC) in sprinters and develop an interpretable neural network model for performance prediction.

methodsThirty elite sprinters completed a randomized crossover trial involving three tES conditions: motor cortex stimulation (C1/C2), prefrontal stimulation (F3), and sham. Sprint performance metrics (0-100 m phase analysis) and lower-limb sEMG signals were collected. A Kolmogorov-Arnold Network (KAN) was trained to decode neuromuscular coordination-sprint performance relationships using IMC and time-frequency sEMG features.

resultsMotor cortex tDCS increased 30-60 m sprint velocity by 2.2% versus sham (

conclusionsTargeted tDCS enhances neuromuscular coordination and sprint velocity, while KAN provides a transparent framework for performance modeling in elite sports.
