Effects of Integrative Neuromuscular Training on Balance Performance in Female Athletes: A Systematic Review and Multilevel Meta-Analysis

This repository contains the complete dataset and R analysis code for the manuscript titled "Effects of Integrative Neuromuscular Training on Balance Performance in Female Athletes: A Systematic Review and Multilevel Meta-Analysis". The raw dataset comprises 87 extracted effect sizes (Hedges' g) and associated moderators derived from 26 randomized controlled trials. The accompanying R scripts (executed in R version 4.5.2) provide the full analytical pipeline, ensuring methodological transparency and reproducibility. Specifically, the code reproduces the three-level random-effects modeling to account for dependency among nested effect sizes. It also includes the scripts for sensitivity analyses (outlier and influence diagnostics), heterogeneity decomposition, subgroup analyses, linear and non-linear (restricted cubic splines) meta-regressions, and publication bias assessments using the <code>meta</code>, <code>metafor</code>, and <code>dmetar</code> packages.
