A comparison of weighted countermovement jumps loading modes using wearable accelerometers.
Article in South African journal of sports medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Background: The countermovement jump (CMJ) is an integral part of force and velocity profiling; a movement that is regularly implemented in training protocols and testing of athletic performance. Adding external loads to CMJs may have an added benefit for assessing gains in power and, in turn, monitoring progressive development. However, these added loads can displace the centre of mass of individuals, which may alter jump kinetics. Objectives: The study aimed to evaluate kinetics across various incremental modes of loading (barbell, trapezius barbell, and dumbbell) CMJs. Methods: Thirty-two male athletes (age: 19±2 years; height: 1.86±0.06 m, mass: 90.4±5.3 kg) completed three weighted CMJs (20, 40, 60 kg) across three bar-type modes of loading (barbell, trapezius barbell, and dumbbell). Jump metrics were measured using a wearable accelerometer. A repeated measures ANOVA was used to compare jump metrics (p<0.05). Results: The results indicated changes in jump kinetics as added loads increased across all bar-type jump modes (p<0.001). Additionally, jump modes yielded different jump kinetics (p<0.001). Specifically, dumbbell CMJs produced the greatest force (2559 ± 462 N) and power (4861±1632 W) outputs. In contrast, the trapezius barbell consistently produced significantly (p<0.001) higher velocity (2.52±0.44 m.s Conclusion: Overall, jump kinetics were altered by loads and jump types. Practically, different loading methods may target distinct jump variables allowing for individualised training programs specific for the athletes' needs.
