The apparent lack of effect of nitrate supplementation in elite endurance athletes may be a function of their athletic status (e.g., superior background NO production or reduced number of Type II muscle fibres) as well as an interaction with the conditions of use.
“The apparent lack of effect in elite endurance athletes may be a function of their athletic status (e.g., due to a superior background NO production or reduced number of Type II muscle fibres in which nitrate supplementation might be most suited to targeting conditions of hypoxia or acidosis [19,56,61,62]) as well as an interaction with the conditions of use.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
