1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) is known to positively impact cognitive function; however, there is currently no empirical evidence directly linking the exercise interval patterns and durations to executive function. The objective of this study is to critically evaluate the positive effects of HIIT on cognitive function, specifically focusing on the influences of exercise intensity and interval patterns. Eighty-five participants were randomly assigned to four different HIIT protocols based on a 2 (exercise time) × 2 (interval time) repeated-measures experimental design. Inhibitory function (IF) was assessed using Eriksen flanker tasks, congruent and incongruent, before and after exercise. The weighted reaction time (WRT) served as a measure of the ability to process information accurately. The nonparametric Kruskal-Wallis test was employed to compare differences in WRT and IF across baseline, pre-test, and post-test conditions. The Generalized Linear Mixed Model (GLMM) was used to identify factors influencing changes in IF (IF
