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

backgroundThe aim of the study was to investigate the relationship between agility and lower extremity strength in female basketball players.

methodsFifteen females aged 18-24 years (age 20.80 years, height 1.70 cm, weight 67.60 kg and body mass index (BMI) 23.20 kg/m²) participated in the study voluntarily. In the study, 5-0-5 Agility (505), Pro-Agility (PA), T Agility (T-test), T Drill Hop (T) tests were used to determine the agility skills of the participants. To determine the lower extremity strength performance of the participants, concentric/concentric (Con/Con) isokinetic knee extension (Ex) and flexion (Flx) tests at angular velocities of 60, 180, 240 and 300°/sec, 5 different single leg hop tests (SLHT) [single leg hop for distance (SL), triple leg hop for distance (THD), crossover hop for distance (CHD), medial side triple hop for distance (MSTH), 90° medial rotation hop for distance (MRH)] and 3 different one-repetition maximum (1 RM) [leg press (LP), leg extension (LEX) and leg curl (LC)] tests were performed.

resultsThe results of the study showed a moderate, high and excellent negative correlation between SLHTs and agility (p < 0.05). Comparisons of agility and strength parameters on the right (R

conclusionsAs a result, we found a negative relationship between agility and lower extremity functional performance tests in female basketball players. In addition, it can be said that participants not likely to be injured under normal conditions (non-contact) because of the asymmetric strength ratios are within the safe range.
