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
Athletes engaging in overhead activities often face injury risks, emphasising the need for reliable assessment tools. This study focused on the translation and psychometric evaluation of the Kerlan-Jobe Orthopaedic Clinic (KJOC) Shoulder and Elbow Score into Greek (Gr-KJOC) for assessing upper limb function in Greek-speaking overhead athletes. The Gr-KJOC underwent meticulous translation and adaptation processes, ensuring linguistic equivalence and cultural relevance. A sample of 60 athletes participated in the psychometric evaluation, including assessments of internal consistency, test-retest reliability, construct validity, and structural validity. The Gr-KJOC demonstrated excellent internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha = 0.95), indicating consistent measurement of the underlying construct. Test-retest reliability was excellent (ICC = 0.95), with low measurement errors. Construct validity was confirmed through correlations with the Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand (DASH) Questionnaire. Structural validity revealed a unidimensional structure with high explained variance (75%). No floor or ceiling effects were observed, and the questionnaire proved feasible, with an average completion time of 6 min. The Gr-KJOC emerges as a reliable, valid, and feasible tool for evaluating upper limb function in Greek-speaking overhead athletes. Its psychometric properties support its utility in clinical and research contexts, contributing to the effective assessment and management of shoulder and elbow conditions in the realm of overhead sports in Greece.
