|---|---|---|---|---|
| Black Currant Exercise Performance Meta-Analysis | Polyphenol supplementation was associated with a small improvement in pain/soreness ( g = 0.252, 95% CI 0.049-0.454; p = 0.018). | 1 | Hu X (2026) | Effects of polyphenol-rich interventions on the time-course of muscle recovery and athletic performance following exercise-induced muscle damage: a three-level meta-analysis. |
| Black Currant Exercise Performance Meta-Analysis | Certainty of evidence was low for muscle damage and performance and very low for pain/soreness and perceptual outcomes. | 1 | Hu X (2026) | Effects of polyphenol-rich interventions on the time-course of muscle recovery and athletic performance following exercise-induced muscle damage: a three-level meta-analysis. |
| Black Currant Exercise Performance Meta-Analysis | Conclusion Polyphenol supplementation may modestly reduce post-exercise pain/soreness, but current evidence does not establish consistent improvements in objective recovery, an optimal recovery window, or superiority of any supplementation strategy. | 1 | Hu X (2026) | Effects of polyphenol-rich interventions on the time-course of muscle recovery and athletic performance following exercise-induced muscle damage: a three-level meta-analysis. |
| Black Currant Exercise Performance Meta-Analysis | Background Polyphenol-rich interventions are widely used to support recovery after exercise-induced muscle damage (EIMD), but their effects across outcome domains and recovery periods remain uncertain. | 1 | Hu X (2026) | Effects of polyphenol-rich interventions on the time-course of muscle recovery and athletic performance following exercise-induced muscle damage: a three-level meta-analysis. |
| Black Currant Exercise Performance Meta-Analysis | Methodological quality and risk of bias were assessed using the PEDro scale and Cochrane RoB 2 tool. | 1 | Eroglu MN (2026) | The Effects of Beetroot Juice Supplementation on Performance and Fatigue During Single and Repeated Sprints: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. |
| Black Currant Exercise Performance Meta-Analysis | BRJ improved time to peak power in four Wingate-based studies (SMD = -0.92, 95% CI: -1.29 to -0.54, p p = 0.027). | 1 | Eroglu MN (2026) | The Effects of Beetroot Juice Supplementation on Performance and Fatigue During Single and Repeated Sprints: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. |
| Black Currant Exercise Performance Meta-Analysis | Conclusions : BRJ may improve time to peak power and handgrip strength; however, low- to very-low-certainty evidence does not support its routine use to enhance short-distance or repeated-sprint performance. | 1 | Eroglu MN (2026) | The Effects of Beetroot Juice Supplementation on Performance and Fatigue During Single and Repeated Sprints: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. |
| Black Currant Exercise Performance Meta-Analysis | Background/Objectives : Beetroot juice (BRJ), a dietary nitrate source, may enhance high-intensity intermittent exercise, but its effects on single- and repeated-sprint performance remain unclear. | 1 | Eroglu MN (2026) | The Effects of Beetroot Juice Supplementation on Performance and Fatigue During Single and Repeated Sprints: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. |
