Intervention Design of High-Intensity Interval Training in Individuals With Spinal Cord Injury: Narrative Review and Future Perspectives.
Review in Topics in spinal cord injury rehabilitation, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Background: Individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI) have lower levels of physical activity compared to the nondisabled population. Exercise guidelines recommend moderate or vigorous exercise to improve cardiovascular health and reduce cardiometabolic risk factors in persons with SCI. High-intensity interval training (HIIT) is a popular exercise choice and encompasses brief periods of vigorous exercise paired with intermittent periods of recovery. Objectives: This review describes the available literature on HIIT for individuals with SCI, including differences in protocol design and suggested areas of further investigation. Methods: Our institution's library system performed the comprehensive search. The primary keywords and phrases used to search included spinal cord injury, high-intensity interval training, tetraplegia, paraplegia, and several other related terms. Results: Initially 62 records were screened, and 36 were deemed outside the scope of this review. Twenty-six studies published between 2001 and 2021 fulfilled the eligibility criteria and were divided among two researchers for review and analysis. All records required persons with SCI and a standardized HIIT intervention. Study design varied widely with respect to mode of exercise, prescribed intensity, duration of performance intervals, and session duration. This variability necessitates further investigation into the specifics of a HIIT prescription and the associated outcomes for persons with SCI. Conclusion: Standardization of HIIT protocols may lead to more robust conclusions regarding its effects on cardiorespiratory fitness as well as mitigation of cardiometabolic risk factors. Meta-analyses will eventually be needed on proper dosing and session parameters to improve cardiorespiratory fitness and cardiometabolic risk factors.
