A mini-review of mathematical methods in sprint performance.
Review in Frontiers in sports and active living, 2025. 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
Mathematics has established itself as a core analytical tool in sprint performance research within sports science, offering quantitative insights that inform coaching strategies, training methodologies, and athlete development. This mini-review examines eight highly-cited publications by Peter Wey and and colleagues, whose work has significantly advanced understanding of sprint biomechanics through the integration of mathematical and biomechanical modeling approaches. This review analyzes diverse methodological applications, ranging from regression models for predicting athletic potential to differential equations for kinetic and kinematic analysis of sprint mechanics. Critical evaluation of these seminal studies demonstrates how mathematical approaches provide objective frameworks for performance analysis, enhance predictive capabilities, and offer mechanistic insight into sprint performance determinants. Then findings underscore the fundamental role of mathematical methods in advancing spring performance research and highlight opportunities for further methodological development in sports science applications.
