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
This study investigated the influence of offensive play duration on the competitive performance of two NBA teams with the most regular-season victories in the league history. Using observational methodology, differences in the length and speed of offensive actions and their corresponding shooting efficiency were examined. Results revealed significant contrasts in the play tempo, with one team favoring fast, explosive plays (Golden State Warriors) and the other adopting slower, more strategic maneuvers (Chicago Bulls). Despite these differences, both teams maintained comparable shooting success rates. This suggests that the ability to adjust the play tempo according to game circumstances and opponent characteristics is critical for maximizing offensive efficiency. Moreover, the study demonstrates that variability in possession duration is strongly linked to fatigue management and the balance between anaerobic and aerobic energy systems. This finding underscores the importance of tactical flexibility, as adjusting the pace and intensity of play can be a decisive factor in modern basketball success, where shorter, quicker, and more explosive plays are increasingly prevalent. The study concludes that dynamic time-of-possession management and adaptive efforts are key to optimizing high-level competitive performance.
