Assessment of muscle oxygenation following eccentric exercise-induced muscle damage using near-infrared spectroscopy
Fig 2
Changes from baseline (Δ) in (a) mid-thigh girth, (b) perceived wellness, (c) countermovement jump height, (d) cycle sprint 1 mean power, (e) cycle sprint 1 peak power, and (f) creatine kinase concentration in the experimental (EXP) group.
Values are presented as means with 90% confidence intervals (CI). The shaded region represents the greater of either the typical error (TE) or the smallest worthwhile change (SWC), used to interpret practical significance. Outcomes are classified as unclear when the 90% CI overlaps both zero and the shaded region. Standardised effect sizes (±90% CI) are reported for outcomes exceeding this threshold.
