Exploring the most demanding scenarios in elite youth basketball: a comprehensive analysis across playing positions and time windows.

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 aimed to examine the Most Demanding Scenarios (MDS) in elite youth basketball players, focusing on position-specific differences across various time windows. Data were collected from 31 players (20 males, 11 females) across two seasons during 40 official games using a 20-Hz Local Positioning System and 100-Hz accelerometer. Metrics included total distance, high-speed running distance, accelerations, decelerations, jumps, and changes of direction. Peak Demands (PD), High-Intensity Periods (HIP), and Very High-Intensity Periods (VHIP) were calculated using rolling averages over 10, 30, 60, and 120-second windows. Mixed linear models compared PD across time intervals and between playing positions (frontcourt vs. backcourt). Shorter time windows showed higher relative peak values for both males and females. Relative distances declined with longer intervals, from 251.34 ± 23.46 m · min
