Supplementary file 2_The effects of menstrual cycle phase on jumping performance in women'

Seven studies were included in a systematic review evaluating the influence of menstrual cycle phases on vertical jump performance in female football players. The review, conducted by Catarina Marques, was registered in PROSPERO (ID CRD420251035357) and followed PRISMA guidelines. It found no statistically significant differences in jump performance across menstrual cycle phases, citing substantial heterogeneity in study methods.

Use Cases

• Conducting a meta-analysis based on the aggregated findings from seven included studies.
• Informing future research protocol design based on the identified methodological heterogeneity in menstrual cycle phase determination.
• Reviewing evidence on female athlete performance based on the systematic search of PubMed, Scopus, and SPORTDiscus databases.

Strengths

• Follows PRISMA guidelines and is registered in PROSPERO (ID CRD420251035357), indicating a structured methodology.
• Systematic search was performed across three major databases: PubMed, Scopus, and SPORTDiscus (EBSCO).
• Methodological quality of included studies was assessed using a modified Downs & Black checklist.

Limitations

• The dataset is a 270.9 KB DOCX file, indicating a limited scope primarily containing review text.
• Row count and column-level documentation are absent; data structure must be inferred after download.
• The description notes substantial heterogeneity and low statistical power in the underlying studies, limiting conclusive findings.
