A study on the effect of acute hyperbaric oxygen intervention on aerobic endurance.
Trial report in Journal of physiological anthropology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
introductionThis study aimed to explore the effects of a single mild-dose, acute hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) intervention (1.3 ATA, 100% oxygen, 60 min) on aerobic endurance, cardiac function, pulmonary function, and autonomic nervous system balance in healthy young men.
methodsUsing a randomized crossover design, 14 participants received both the HBO intervention and the control condition (seated rest). For each condition, heart rate variability (HRV), cardiac function, and pulmonary function were assessed before and after the intervention, while aerobic endurance indicators-such as peak oxygen uptake (VO₂peak) and time to exhaustion (TTE)-were measured once following each condition.
resultsHBO significantly decreased resting heart rate (from 63.64 ± 7.75 to 58.79 ± 7.29 bpm, Δ = -7.23%, p = 0.009), with a significant main effect of time (F(1,13) = 7.657, p = 0.016, η
conclusionA single mild-dose, acute HBO intervention can significantly improve resting heart rate and enhance short-term HRV parameters, suggesting a beneficial effect on parasympathetic activity. However, it does not directly enhance aerobic endurance, and long-term interventions or combined training may be needed to realize its potential benefits.
