Effects of whole-body electromyostimulation as a time-efficient intervention on myokine profile and muscular performance in overweight adults: a randomized controlled study.
Article in Frontiers in sports and active living, 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
Introduction: This study compared the efficacy of whole-body electromyostimulation (WB-EMS) vs. traditional resistance training (RT) in overweight adults. Methods: Forty overweight adults were randomized to WB-EMS ( Results: Findings demonstrated significantly greater improvements in selected performance and biomarker outcomes in the WB-EMS group compared to other groups. Performance tests revealed significant enhancements in sit-ups ( Conclusions: Twenty-minute WB-EMS sessions twice weekly elicit significantly greater improvements in muscular performance and favorable myokine profiles compared to conventional RT in overweight individuals. These findings suggest that WB-EMS may represent a time-efficient alternative for improving metabolic-muscular health in time-constrained populations.
