## Evidence Landscape

This evidence map surveys 17 independent exercise difference sources drawn from the Tier-2 corpus and classified as direct findings. They span several populations, comparators, and endpoints and are catalogued by source in the Findings Map rather than pooled into one estimate — cross-population aggregation is not claimed. Each row records its own population, comparator, endpoint, and effect, so the spread of the literature and any tensions between findings remain explicit.

## Limitations

This is a scoping map of retrieved direct findings, not a meta-analysis: no pooled effect is computed, coverage is bounded by the Tier-2 corpus, and heterogeneity across rows precludes a single unified conclusion.

## Scope

What is the range of reported effects across the exercise difference literature, and how do they vary by population, comparator, and endpoint? This map catalogues the findings rather than converging them to one claim.

## Search Summary

17 direct (A_core) sources were retrieved from the Tier-2 semantic corpus for this topic and lane-classified; each is cited with a resolvable identifier in the source bundle below.

## Tensions and Gaps

Findings differ in population, comparator, endpoint, and effect size, so they are not directly comparable and are not pooled. Gaps remain where a population or comparator is represented by only a single source.
