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
Objective: The aim of the present paper was to determine the impact of Speedcourt training on agility and change-of-direction (COD) in female tennis players, and to research the relevance between agility and lower limbs unilateral explosive power (UEP). Despite extensive research on agility training, limited studies have explored these effects specifically in female athletes and the number of exercises such as Speedcourt is also small, necessitating this investigation. Method: Twenty-two female tennis players underwent SpeedCourt training for 6 weeks, respectively executed random sequence shuttle run training (RS group, Results: The two-way repeated measures analysis of variance showed significant improvements in spider run ( Conclusion: Six-week Speedcourt training can effectively enhance the agility and change-of-direction of female tennis players. Incorporating lower limb explosive exercises into agility-specific training may further enhance agility improvements in female tennis players.
