Effects of high-intensity interval training on body morphology and mental health in obese female college students.
Article in Frontiers in medicine, 2026. 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
Aim: To investigate the impacts of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) on body morphology along with mental health in obese female college students. Methods: One hundred and twenty obese female college students admitted to our university from October 2022 to October 2025 were included and randomly divided into control group and study group. The former implemented routine health education without any structured exercise intervention, while the latter underwent a 12-week HIIT intervention (three sessions per week, 30 min per session). Comparisons included Body morphology indicators, mental health indicators, biochemical indicators, sleep quality along with quality of life. Results: Following the intervention, compared to the control group, the study group demonstrated significant improvements across multiple metrics. Specifically, the study group exhibited a lower body mass index, reduced body fat percentage, decreased waist circumference, and a lower waist-to-hip ratio ( Conclusion: HIIT intervention can effectively improve body morphology, mental health, physical fitness, biochemical indicators, sleep quality, and quality of life in obese female college students.
