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

Background: In gymnastics, athletes may demonstrate strong technique yet make minor errors from lapses in focus. Others remain attentive but struggle to recall complex movement sequences. This highlights that gymnastics is shaped by both motor and cognitive abilities. Objective: This research is to investigate the role of cognitive (concentration abilities) in improving the performance of gymnastics athletes. Method: The research used was correlational, involving seventeen young female artistic gymnasts who consistently participated in training. The research instruments were a concentration grid test and a floor exercise performance test. Results: Showed that concentration significantly influenced performance, especially in floor exercises. Discussion: Artistic gymnastics achievement depends not only on physical readiness but also on cognitive readiness. Cognitive readiness supports consistency in movement, technical accuracy, and mental stability in both training and competition. Further research can explore specific cognitive training interventions to better understand the cognitive contribution to gymnastics performance.
