The authors of “Resistance Training Load Effects on Muscle Hypertrophy and Strength Gain: Systematic Review and Network Meta-analysis” (1) have corrected the effect size of three studies (Morton et al., 2016; Jenkins et al., 2017; Ozaki et al., 2018) in Figure 4. As a result, the overall and best quality effects are slightly changed, with no changes in the main findings and conclusions of the study.
The amended figure appears below.
Figure 4.

SMD effects between low-, moderate- and high-load resistance training performed until volitional failure on muscle strength. Overall and subgroup analyses conducted with a network random effects model. Gray and white circles represent study-specific estimates based on risk of bias assessment (low risk, and some concern or high risk of bias, respectively); diamonds represent pooled estimates of random-effects meta-analysis.
