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
Introduction: Psychological stressors have become a natural part of the process of developing skills in talent development environments of youth athletes. However, there is little research on psychological stressors among talented female athletes and how this is impacted by an athletes' perfectionism. This study investigated how female national team players in football, handball, and ice-hockey in Norway (controlled for age, sport, overload injury and playing time) experienced perceived psychological stressors (PPS) and how the two perfectionism dimensions - evaluative concerns (EC) and personal strivings (PS) impact on PPS. Methods: The sample in this study was 145 female (Handball 27%, Ice-Hockey 43% and Football 30%) players selected to an age-specific national team of U16-U19 ( Results: The linear regression analysis with PPS as the dependent variable, with the independent variables EC, PS, self-reported playing time, OI and age, explained 25% of the variance in PPS and was statistically significant ( Discussion: The current study highlights the importance of key stakeholders being aware that athletes who score high on EC are more vulnerable to everyday stress, and that athletes are particularly vulnerable to stress when they are injured.
