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

In the contemporary landscape of basketball, characterized by an escalating tempo and heightened defensive intensity, the 3-point shot has emerged as a pivotal weapon for teams striving to secure victory. Consequently, enhancing the 3-point field goal percentage has become an utmost concern for coaches and players alike. The objective of this study is to examine the influence of visual attention training on the visual attention characteristics and field goal percentage among semi-professional basketball players, thus establishing a scientific basis for basketball instruction and training. Twenty participants were randomly assigned to the experimental group and the control group based on their baseline 3-point field goal percentage (3PFGP) to ensure homogeneity between groups. The experimental group received an 8-week visual attention training protocol, whereas the control group adhered to routine training. A portable eye-tracking device was employed to collect eye movement metrics (e.g., number of fixations and durations) for both groups, with 3PFGP recorded pre-test, mid-test, and post-test. Data were analyzed using mixed ANOVA with Bonferroni-adjusted
