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

Introduction: Understanding competition demands in elite wheelchair basketball (WCB) is essential for designing effective training programs given the range of impairments represented within teams. The aim was to examine movement demands in elite WCB by sex and Para-sport classification. Methods: Inertial measurement units (IMU) and local positioning system (LPS) data were collected during international series involving the Australian national WCB teams. The dataset included observations from 12 female athletes across five games and 14 male athletes across three games. Athletes were classified as either high-point (≥3.0; Results: Relative competition demands (accelerations ≥1.0 m·s⁻ Discussion: These findings highlight similar movement demands between sexes, with differences emerging in the most demanding efforts and across classification groups. Training approaches may benefit from consideration of classification-relevant physical qualities, particularly high-intensity propulsion and braking capacities.
