Meta-analysis of high-intensity interval training and alternative modalities for enhancing aerobic and anaerobic endurance in young athletes.
Synthesis in Physiological reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled it.
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
This meta-analysis examined whether HIIT outperforms low-intensity endurance training (LIET), generic training (GT), or sport-specific drills (SSD) in improving aerobic and anaerobic endurance in youth athletes. Systematic searches of PubMed, MEDLINE, SPORTDiscus, and Web of Science identified studies comparing HIIT with LIET, GT, or SSD in athletes aged ≤18 years. Outcomes included maximal oxygen uptake (VO
