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
Purpose: To evaluate the epidemiology of hamstring tendon injuries in the United States from 2015 to 2024 and to project incidence trends through 2030. Methods: Patients diagnosed with hamstring strains between 2015 and 2024 were identified using Results: A total of 118,197 patients with hamstring injuries were identified, with a mean age of 48.7 years; 49% were female. In 2024, hamstring injury incidence was 42.79 per 100,000 (95% confidence interval, 42.01-43.98), a significant increase from 11.61 per 100,000 (95% confidence interval, 11.28-11.94) in 2015 ( Conclusions: There is a rising burden of hamstring injuries in the general population, with the highest incidence among older adults and young people. Projections based on current trends estimate that the annual incidence of these injuries will continue to rise. Level of Evidence: Level IV, descriptive epidemiologic study.
