Executive function performance in Chinese youth ice hockey players: a comparison between expert and novice groups.

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
Objective: This study aims to explore the executive function advantages of Chinese youth ice hockey players and provide a theoretical basis for the selection and training of ice hockey players. Methods: A total of 132 youth ice hockey players were recruited and divided into an expert group (65 players, mean age 15.8 years, mean training duration 6.7 years) and a novice group (67 players, mean age 16.2 years, mean training duration 3.2 years). The Flanker task, 2-back task, and More-odd shifting task were used to measure inhibition, updating, and shifting functions, respectively. Statistical analyses were performed using the Mann-Whitney Results: Athletes exhibit a speed-accuracy trade-off. The expert group showed significantly shorter response times than the novice group in the congruent condition ( Conclusion: Youth ice hockey players in the expert group demonstrate more superior executive functions, and there is a significant negative correlation between training duration and response time in executive function tasks.
