The Effects of the Leg Position on the Nordic Hamstring Exercise Eccentric Force: A Randomized Cross-Over Study.

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
Given the posterior chain configuration, it is anticipated that tibial positioning influences hamstring recruitment; medial hamstrings should be more activated during medial rotation, while lateral hamstrings should be more activated during lateral rotation. However, most studies showing this pattern have focused on concentric or isometric strength, leaving the influence on eccentric strength fairly unknown. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the electromyographic response of the hamstring muscles during Nordic hamstring exercises in three leg positions: internal rotation, external rotation, and neutral. This study encompassed a randomized crossover study and used surface electromyography to analyze the activity of the biceps femoris and semitendinosus muscles during the Nordic hamstring exercise, in the three positions. Results indicated no statistically significant differences in muscle activation between positions or sides (
