Weekly Fluctuations in Subjective and Objective Measures of Internal Training Load and Their Relationships in Male Elite Rowers.
Article in Journal of sports science & medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Subjective and objective methods are commonly used to evaluate the load and physiological adaptations of athletes in training. However, there is a lack of data and their relationship concerning these tools in professional rowing training. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between the subjective and objective training loads of male rowers during a mesocycle. Field data were collected from 26 professional rowers over 6 consecutive weeks. Subjective training load variables (perceived exertion, acute: chronic workload ratio, training monotony and strain), and objective variables (white blood cell, red blood cell, blood urea, creatine kinase, testosterone, and cortisol) was collected, and correlations between various TL's were analyzed. All participants completed 6 weeks of training, which consisted of resistance (315 ± 88.5min/week), on-water (817.5 ± 9min/week), ergometer (341.9 ± 194.1min/week) and functional training (60min/week). Week 5 had the highest average weekly subjective training load (10849.23 ± 1361.14 AU), whereas Week 2 showed the highest training monotony (TM) with statistically significant differences compared to Week 1, week 3, week 5 and week 6 (p < 0.05), with small to moderate effect sizes (ES: 0.275-0.619). There were correlations among all the subjective training load variables. A positive correlation was found between sRPE
