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

Introduction: Gender equality (GE) is increasingly becoming a key point on modern political agendas. While governments and civil societies strive to achieve this goal, we may be far from "perfect" equality between women and men. Sport is a good example of some of the inequalities that men and women face, such as pay, discrimination, and unequal opportunities. Methods: The study uses data from the Special Eurobarometer 525 (April-May 2022) to understand attitudes towards GE in sports (ATGEQS). By applying Fuzzy-Hybrid TOPSIS approach, and other methods like Latent Profile Analysis and Multinomial Logistic Regression, I investigate how gender, age, income, education, political beliefs and nationality affect these attitudes. Results and Discussion: The Nordic countries have the highest ATGEQS, while support for EU GE policies, left-wing views, and life satisfaction is positively related to favourable attitudes. The findings highlight the need for awareness and policies for sports participation to be created, with greater emphasis on disadvantaged groups.
