The effect of low-intensity suspension training with blood flow restriction on GH, IGF-1, and their association with physical fitness in young women.
Trial report in Physiological reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Blood flow restriction (BFR) has been incorporated in resistance training for over 20 years. We aimed to investigate the impact of low-intensity suspension training with BFR (LIST+BFR) on GH, IGF-1, and their association with physical fitness in young women. Thirty-six active women participated and were randomly assigned to either the high-intensity suspension training (HIST), LIST+BFR, or control (CON) groups. Training groups exercised three sessions weekly for 8 weeks. The CON only engaged in regular physical activity. Fasting serum hormones and physical fitness were assessed 48 h before and after the training intervention. GH and IGF-1 levels significantly higher in the LIST+BFR compared to the HIST and CON. These hormones were significantly higher by HIST, compared to CON. LIST+BFR led to significant enhancements in muscular strength and endurance compared to HIST and CON. Additionally, HIST significantly higher than compared to CON. Sprinting and agility time lower in both suspension training groups rather than the CON. No significant between-groups differences were found in weight. There was a large or moderate correlation between GH and IGF-1 and muscular strength, endurance, sprint, and agility performance. LIST+BFR could more enhanced GH, IGF-1, and muscular strength and endurance in females than HIST.
