Jump training with different loads: effects on jumping performance and power output.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
purposeTo investigate the selective effects of different types of external loads applied in vertical jump training on both the performance and muscle power output of the squat (SJ) and countermovement jump (CMJ).
methodsPhysically active males practiced maximum unconstrained vertical jumps over an 8-week period with no load, with either a negative or positive load exerted by a nearly constant external force that altered their body weight, and with a loaded vest that increased both the body weight and inertia. The magnitude of all applied loads corresponded to 30 % of body weight.
resultsA similar training-associated increase in jump height was observed in all experimental groups in both CMJ (7.4-11.8 %) and SJ (6.4-14.1 %). The relative increase in power output was comparable to the increase in jump height in SJ (7.4-11.5 %), while the power increase in CMJ was relatively small and load-specific (0.5-9.5 %). The observed differences could originate from the changes in the CMJ pattern, reflected through the depth of the counter movement that particularly increased after the training with negative load (42 %) and no load (21 %). The same participants also revealed increased CMJ duration, reduced ground reaction forces, as well as reduced maximum and average power output when compared with other training groups.
conclusionJump training with the applied loads could lead to a comparable improvement in jumping performance. However, the observed load-specific adaptations of CMJ pattern could decouple the training-associated increase in jump height from the increase in muscle power output.
