The Metabolic Signature of Cardiorespiratory Fitness.
Article in Scandinavian journal of medicine & science in sports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. 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
High cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) is associated with better overall health. This study aimed to find a metabolic signature associated with CRF to identify health-promoting effects. CRF based on cardiopulmonary exercise testing, targeted and untargeted metabolomics approaches based on mass spectrometry, and clinical data from two independent cohorts of the Study of Health in Pomerania (SHIP) were used. Sex-stratified linear regression models were adjusted for age, smoking, and height to relate CRF with individual metabolites. A total of 132 (SHIP-START-2: 483 men with a median age of 58 years and 450 women with a median age of 56 years) and 118 (SHIP-TREND-0: 341 men and 371 women both with a median age of 51 years) metabolites were associated with CRF. Lipids showed bidirectional relations to CRF independent of sex. Specific subsets of sphingomyelins were positively related to CRF in men (SM (OH) C14:1, SM(OH)C22:2 SM C16:0, SM C20:2 SM(OH)C24:1) and inversely in women (SM C16:1, SM C18:0, SM C18:1). Metabolites involved in energy production (citrate and succinylcarnitine) were only associated with CRF in men. In women, xenobiotics (hippurate, stachydrine) were related to CRF. The sex-specific metabolic signature of CRF is influenced by sphingomyelins, energy substrates, and xenobiotics. The greater effect estimates seen in women may emphasize the important role of CRF in maintaining metabolic health. Future research should explore how this profile changes with different types of exercise interventions or diseases in diverse populations and how these metabolites could be implemented in primary prevention settings.
