Emotional intelligence and burnout in youth athletes: the mediating roles of sleep quality, fatigue, and delayed onset muscle soreness.
Article in Frontiers in psychology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Youth competitive sports expose athletes to substantial physical and psychological demands, yet the mechanisms through which physiological stress translates into psychological burnout remain insufficiently understood. Existing research has seldom examined emotional intelligence (EI) together with key recovery-related variables such as sleep quality, fatigue, and delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS), nor has it clarified whether these relationships differ across sport types. Drawing on data from 450 collegiate athletes, this study investigated the combined and moderating effects of EI, sleep quality, fatigue, and DOMS on burnout, and compared these pathways between team and individual sports. Results showed that sleep quality served as a protective factor against burnout (
