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: This study investigated the impact of lateral dominance (eye/leg dominance and ipsilateral/crossed dominance patterns) on bilateral turning performance in alpine skiers, analyzing its mechanistic role across different skiing phases to provide theoretical support for training optimization. Methods: Twenty-two alpine skiers (age: 23.14 ± 1.75 years; national level 1 or above) performed slalom tests on an indoor ski simulator (slope: 20°; speed: 27.3 km/h). 4 K cameras recorded kinematics and time metrics during initiation phase, and turning phases. Post-test, eye dominance was determined via hole-in-card and electrooculography tests, while leg dominance was assessed through single-leg vertical jumps. Participants were categorized into ipsilateral/crossed dominance groups based on eye-leg combinations. Mixed linear models analyzed within-group differences across phases. Results: During initiation phase, dominant eye-turn consistency showed a significant effect, where turns towards the non-dominant side yielded superior performance ( Conclusion: Coaches should incorporate dual-task training to improve visual-motor coordination and bilateral symmetry, thereby mitigating technical asymmetries and enhancing competitive outcomes.
