Force Plate Assessment of Neuromuscular Jump Performance Under Loaded and Unloaded Conditions in Military Personnel.
Article in Sensors (Basel, Switzerland), 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
(1) Background: Military personnel are required to perform high-intensity actions and tactical tasks under external load, which increases system weight and alters movement mechanics. Understanding how these loaded conditions influence neuromuscular performance is essential for informing physical preparation and readiness monitoring. This study quantified the effects of tactical equipment on countermovement jump (CMJ) and countermovement rebound jump (CMRJ) force-time characteristics in active military personnel and evaluated the within-session reliability of these metrics under loaded and unloaded conditions; (2) Methods: Eighteen male soldiers performed CMJ and CMRJ assessments on dual force plates (1000 Hz) under unloaded and loaded conditions (standardized tactical equipment: 10.6 ± 1.18 kg). Force-time variables were categorized as strategy (phase durations, countermovement depth), driver (mean braking and propulsive force), and outcome (jump height, jump momentum, and modified reactive strength index; mRSI) metrics; (3) Results: CMJ outcome and driver metrics demonstrated good to excellent reliability under load (ICC ≥ 0.87; CV ≤ 8.4%), whereas CMRJ outcome variables showed reduced reliability and greater variability. Loaded conditions reduced jump height and mRSI in both CMJ and CMRJ (
