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: Wheelchair basketball performance depends on multiple factors, including classification, training experience, and sport-specific movement proficiency. This study aimed to evaluate selected physical performance characteristics in wheelchair basketball players of the Latvian national team. Methods: Nine athletes completed a multidimensional field-based assessments, including the 6-minute push test (6MPT), Results: The mean distance covered during the 6MPT was 892.6 ± 70.4 m, and the mean Conclusion: Multicomponent field-based testing in this small cohort of Latvian national team wheelchair basketball players demonstrated substantial inter-individual variability in physical performance outcomes. Within the limitations of this heterogeneous sample, no significant associations were observed between IWBF classification and the measured field-based performance variables. Further research involving larger cohorts and broader wheelchair basketball-specific testing protocols is required.
