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

Background: This study investigated lower-limb biomechanical asymmetries during single-leg drop jumps (SLDJ) in elite male long and high jumpers. Methods: Twenty athletes performed SLDJ from 30-cm and 40-cm heights using dominant and non-dominant legs. Three-dimensional kinematic and kinetic data were collected using a motion capture system and force platforms. Measured variables included joint angles, moments, peak vertical ground reaction force (Peak vGRF), loading rate, reactive strength index (RSI), and absolute symmetry index (ASI%). Data were analyzed using a two-way repeated-measures ANOVA. Results: The dominant leg exhibited significantly greater ankle range of motion ( Conclusion: These findings suggest a trend wherein inter-limb asymmetry during the single-leg drop jump appeared to become more pronounced with increasing drop height. This observation may offer valuable insight for sport-specific performance assessment and targeted injury prevention.
