Validating Field Methods to Estimate the Pelvic Tilt in Sprinting and the Relationship between Prior Hamstring Injury and the Pelvic Tilt in Elite Female Soccer Players.

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
An excessive pelvic tilt in the late swing phase of sprinting may be associated with an increased risk of hamstring injury. Nevertheless, research including female athletes is scarce. Furthermore, it is essential to validate simple on-field methods. This study consisted of two experiments. Experiment I assessed the validity of two 2-D video-based methods: i) the kick-back score calculated from thigh angles at the toe-off and the touchdown; and ii) the pelvic tilt estimated by a line connecting two markers on the pelvis. Twelve soccer players sprinted for 30 m, and 3-D motion capture data and 2-D sagittal plane video were recorded. Experiment II aimed to compare the above 2-D methods in recently injured (n = 7) and non-injured (n = 18) professional female soccer players. In Experiment I, no correlation was found between the kick-back score and the pelvic tilt assessed using 3-D motion capture (rho = -0.224, p = 0.242). Two-D camera-based estimation of the pelvic tilt correlated with the 3-D pelvic tilt (r = 0.89-0.94,
