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

Dietary nitrate supplementation has been shown to improve endurance exercise performance, but its effects on repeated anaerobic sprints and potential sex-based differences remain underexplored. This study examined whether acute dietary nitrate supplementation reduces performance decline during repeated Wingate sprints and whether responses differ between sexes. The secondary aim was to investigate the potential central and peripheral mechanisms. Using a randomized crossover design, 19 males and 17 females (all recreational athletes) consumed dietary nitrate supplementation in the form of nitrate-rich beetroot juice (~13 mmol NO
