Sex and Isolated Anthropometric Measures Do Not Explain Individual Differences in Responsiveness to Advanced Footwear Technology in Highly Trained Runners.
Article in Scandinavian journal of medicine & science in sports, 2026. 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
Advanced footwear technology (AFT) has improved running economy in distance runners, yet individual responsiveness varies widely. Sex differences and anthropometric characteristics have been proposed as potential factors, but evidence remains limited. This study investigated whether sex-based differences exist in the response to running in an AFT shoe compared to a non-AFT control shoe. The response was measured by means of the change in energy cost (EC), ΔEC, and it was assessed whether isolated anthropometric characteristics could predict ΔEC in highly trained long-distance runners. Fifteen female and fifteen male runners completed treadmill running economy tests at 60%, 70%, and 80% of their VO
