Gender Effect on the Relationship between Talent Identification Tests and Later World Triathlon Series Performance.
Article in Sports (Basel, Switzerland), 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
backgroundWe examined the explanatory power of the Spanish triathlon talent identification (TID) tests for later World Triathlon Series (WTS)-level racing performance as a function of gender.
methodsYouth TID (100 m and 1000 m swimming and 400 m and 1000 m running) test performance times for when they were 14-19 years old, and WTS performance data up to the end of 2017, were obtained for 29 female and 24 male "successful" Spanish triathletes. The relationships between the athletes' test performances and their later best WTS ranking positions and performance times were modeled using multiple linear regression.
resultsThe swimming and running TID test data had greater explanatory power for best WTS ranking in the females and for best WTS position in the males (R
conclusionsThese results confirm that triathlon TID tests should not be based solely on swimming and running performance. Moreover, the predictive value of the individual tests within the Spanish TID battery is gender specific.
