L-Citrulline Endurance Exercise Meta-AnalysisRisk of bias, small-study effects, sensitivity analyses, and GRADE certainty were assessed.1Wang X (2026)Effects of Citrulline Malate Supplementation on Exercise Performance: A Systematic Review and Three-Level Meta-Analysis.
L-Citrulline Endurance Exercise Meta-AnalysisCM supplementation was associated with a small improvement in overall exercise performance (g = 0.16, p = 0.01); however, prediction intervals were wide and statistical power was limited.1Wang X (2026)Effects of Citrulline Malate Supplementation on Exercise Performance: A Systematic Review and Three-Level Meta-Analysis.
L-Citrulline Endurance Exercise Meta-AnalysisCurrent evidence appeared more stable for acute than chronic supplementation, although the protocol subgroup difference remained uncertain.1Wang X (2026)Effects of Citrulline Malate Supplementation on Exercise Performance: A Systematic Review and Three-Level Meta-Analysis.
L-Citrulline Endurance Exercise Meta-AnalysisBackground: Citrulline malate (CM) is commonly used as an ergogenic supplement, but its effects on exercise performance and perceived exertion remain uncertain.1Wang X (2026)Effects of Citrulline Malate Supplementation on Exercise Performance: A Systematic Review and Three-Level Meta-Analysis.
L-Citrulline Endurance Exercise Meta-AnalysisNext, we integrate evidence on the ergogenic effects of various dietary interventions with existing knowledge on the perception of effort.4Strasser B (2026)Dietary interventions interact with the perception of effort and enhance endurance performance: a brief narrative review.
L-Citrulline Endurance Exercise Meta-AnalysisBeta-alanine, caffeine or carbohydrate mouth rinsing are examples of evidence-based ergogenic aids.4Strasser B (2026)Dietary interventions interact with the perception of effort and enhance endurance performance: a brief narrative review.
L-Citrulline Endurance Exercise Meta-AnalysisConclusion While current evidence supports a key role for dietary interventions on endurance performance by influencing individuals' perceived effort, more research is needed to determine the optimal doses and precise formulations for different sports, in order to employ a personalized strategy.4Strasser B (2026)Dietary interventions interact with the perception of effort and enhance endurance performance: a brief narrative review.
L-Citrulline Endurance Exercise Meta-AnalysisBackground Exercise tolerance is a pivotal factor in determining athletic competitive success, as well as mobility and quality of life in elderly individuals and those afflicted by chronic ailments.4Strasser B (2026)Dietary interventions interact with the perception of effort and enhance endurance performance: a brief narrative review.
