Exertional inspiratory capacity and operating lung volumes in health: a population-based study.
Article in ERJ open research, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Rationale: Inspiratory capacity (IC) should increase during exercise to allow unrestrained tidal volume expansion, mitigating uncomfortable respiratory sensations. However, preliminary evidence suggests that this is not universally seen in healthy individuals. Whether this negatively impacts on inspiratory reserves and dyspnoea remains unclear. To gain novel insights on the regulation of operating lung volumes in community-dwelling individuals, we determined the association of a lack of increase in IC during incremental cardiopulmonary exercise testing (dynamic inspiratory capacity (IC Methods: We reviewed general characteristics, pulmonary function and cycle ergometer data from 1065 healthy individuals (51.5% women, aged 20-86 years) with normal lung function. Measurements and main results: IC Conclusions: Elderly women and overweight/obese individuals may fail to increase IC
