| Omega-3 Exercise Recovery Meta-Analysis | Background: Supplementation with long-chain omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC n -3 PUFAs), particularly eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), may mitigate exercise-induced muscle damage (EIMD) and enhance post-exercise recovery. | 1 | Yaghoobi E (2026) | Effects of LC <i>n</i>-3 PUFA Supplementation on Muscle Pain, Function, and Damage Markers in Healthy Young to Middle-Aged Adults Following Acute or Chronic Exercise: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials. |
| Omega-3 Exercise Recovery Meta-Analysis | However, the systematic reviews/meta-analyses evaluating these effects across populations and exercise models are limited and do not provide dosing recommendations. | 1 | Yaghoobi E (2026) | Effects of LC <i>n</i>-3 PUFA Supplementation on Muscle Pain, Function, and Damage Markers in Healthy Young to Middle-Aged Adults Following Acute or Chronic Exercise: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials. |
| Omega-3 Exercise Recovery Meta-Analysis | Network meta-analysis employing a frequentist random-effects model synthesized direct and indirect evidence, with treatment rankings determined using Surface Under the Cumulative Ranking curve probabilities. | 1 | Wang Z (2026) | Comparative Effects of Dietary Protein, Creatine, and Omega-3 Supplementation on Muscle Strength, Endurance, and Recovery in Trained Athletes: A Systematic Review and Network Meta-Analysis. |
| Omega-3 Exercise Recovery Meta-Analysis | Network consistency assessment revealed no significant disagreement between direct and indirect evidence across all outcomes. | 1 | Wang Z (2026) | Comparative Effects of Dietary Protein, Creatine, and Omega-3 Supplementation on Muscle Strength, Endurance, and Recovery in Trained Athletes: A Systematic Review and Network Meta-Analysis. |
| Omega-3 Exercise Recovery Meta-Analysis | This systematic review and network meta-analysis aimed to compare the effects of dietary protein, creatine, and omega-3 fatty acid supplementation on muscle strength, endurance performance, and recovery outcomes in trained athletes. | 1 | Wang Z (2026) | Comparative Effects of Dietary Protein, Creatine, and Omega-3 Supplementation on Muscle Strength, Endurance, and Recovery in Trained Athletes: A Systematic Review and Network Meta-Analysis. |
| Omega-3 Exercise Recovery Meta-Analysis | A comprehensive literature search across MEDLINE, Embase, Cochrane CENTRAL, Web of Science, SPORTDiscus, and Scopus identified randomized controlled trials evaluating these supplements in individuals engaged in structured training for a minimum of six months. | 1 | Wang Z (2026) | Comparative Effects of Dietary Protein, Creatine, and Omega-3 Supplementation on Muscle Strength, Endurance, and Recovery in Trained Athletes: A Systematic Review and Network Meta-Analysis. |
