Intra-individual reliability of blood bicarbonate responses and gastrointestinal symptoms following sodium citrate supplementation.
Article in Journal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. It is linked to trial NCT07737327 (The Acute Effects of Individually Timed Sodium Citrate Ingestion on Repeated Sprint Performance in Professional Female Soccer Players), which is not on this 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.

conclusionSC elicits a consistent group-level alkalosis, yet individual timing metrics are unreliable. Concentration-based indices are more stable for monitoring. Practically, a 2-3 h ingestion window maximizes the probability of achieving ≥+5 mmol·L
