Effects of Multi-joint Eccentric Training on Muscle Function When Combined With Aquatic Plyometric Training: A Minimal Dose, Mixed Training Study.
Trial report in Journal of musculoskeletal & neuronal interactions, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
objectivesTo examine the effects of a combined eccentric overload and aquatic-based plyometric training program on muscle function/performance measures and soreness versus an eccentric-only training protocol using a minimal dose training paradigm.
methodsTwenty-five participants were randomized into either an eccentric-only training group (ECC) or a combined eccentric and aquatic plyometric group (ECC + AQP). The ECC group performed eccentric training once per week for 6-weeks while the ECC + AQP group performed the same eccentric training but with an additional aquatic plyometric training session.
resultsThere was no group × trial interactions for any of the variables. However, the training elicited large improvements in eccentric strength in both ECC (27%; ES = 1.33) and ECC+AQP (17%; ES = .86) groups. Isometric strength improved moderately for ECC and ECC+AQP groups (17.2%, ES = .53;9%, ES = .45). A moderate increase was observed for depth jump height for both ECC and ECC+AQP groups (13.1%, ES = .48;8.8%, ES = .36). No changes were observed for countermovement jump or sprint time and muscle soreness did not differ between groups.
conclusionsMinimal dose multi-joint eccentric overload training improved strength and depth jump outcomes after 6-weeks regardless of the training condition but adding a minimal dose aquatic plyometric protocol does not improve muscle function-based outcomes.
