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

Wearable inertial measurement units (IMUs) provide an accessible means of monitoring fatigue-related changes in running biomechanics, yet most existing methods rely on limited feature sets, lack personalization, or fail to generalize across individuals. This study introduces a bioinformatics-inspired stride sequence modeling framework that integrates spectral-entropy features, sample entropy, frequency-domain descriptors, and mixed-effects statistical modeling to detect fatigue using a single lumbar-mounted IMU. Nineteen recreational runners completed non-fatigued and fatigued 400 m runs, from which we extracted stride-level features and evaluated (1) population-level fatigue classification via global leave-one-participant-out (LOPO) models and (2) individualized fatigue detection through supervised participant-specific models and non-fatigued-only anomaly detection. Mixed-effects models revealed robust and multidimensional fatigue effects across key biomechanical features, with large standardized effect sizes (Cohen's d up to 1.35) and substantial variance uniquely explained by fatigue (partial R
