1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Objectives: To compare two implementation strategies, an educational handout and a knowledge-to-action (KTA) intervention, for promoting anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury prevention programme (ACL-IPP) implementation in amateur youth girls' soccer. The primary outcomes assessed include frequency of ACL-IPP implementation and ACL injury risk. Methods: This was a prospective cohort study, which followed 671 amateur female soccer players (15.72±1.78 years) whose coaches received either a KTA intervention (n=400) or an educational handout (n=271) regarding implementing an ACL-IPP. Over a single season, we tracked the number of ACL injuries weekly and implementation rates at the end of the season through surveying participating coaches. A χ Results: The KTA intervention yielded higher ACL-IPP implementation as compared with the educational handout (X Conclusion: Stakeholder engagement in the process of planning and execution of IPPs, such as with a KTA intervention, appears beneficial for the purposes of increasing implementation rates. Since implementation was significantly associated with lower rates of ACL injuries, this process may lead to improved results in injury prevention in amateur youth soccer.
