Involvement of Dopamine in Cognitive Improvement by Aerobic Exercise.
Review in Advances in neurobiology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
It has been suggested that acute physical exercise at low to moderate intensity improves cognitive function, as shown by improvements in cognitive performance. Decades of research have explored or discussed physiological mechanisms underlying cognitive improvements induced by acute exercise. However, the precise physiological mechanisms responsible for improvements in cognitive function remain to be elucidated. There is a large body of evidence to suggest that cognitive function is linked with dopamine (DA) in the brain. Rodent studies have shown that acute exercise releases neurotransmitters in the brain. Recent studies using positron emission tomography (PET) have also suggested that acute exercise released endogenous DA in humans. Furthermore, it appears that endogenous DA release is linked with improvements in cognitive function induced by acute exercise. Therefore, in this chapter, we focus on DA and discuss it as a promising candidate to account for exercise-cognition interaction, particularly improvement in cognitive function induced by acute exercise. We propose that further studies using PET would be helpful to progress our understanding of improvements in cognitive function induced by acute exercise.
