Effects of multiple object tracking training on visual attention and sports decision-making in novice female basketball players: evidence from EyeLink-EEG synchronization.
Article in PeerJ, 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
Background: Visual attention is critical for effective sports decision-making (SDM), this study explores that how multiple-object tracking (MOT) training improves decision-making accuracy (ACC) and the underlying neural mechanisms. Methods: The paper selected 56 novice female novice basketball players from universities, which synchronized eye movement electroencephalogram (EEG) technology was used to analyze the relationship between visual attention and sports decision-making, as well as the corresponding EEG changes, through nine weeks of multiple-object tracking training in the intervention group. Results: After training, the accuracy of the intervention group significantly improved, the proportion of players' fixation on key and related areas increased, and the visual search process was simplified. During the decision-making process, event-related potential (ERP) components N1, P1, late positive complex (LPC), and late negative complex (LNC) undergo changes, the result improved efficiency of cognitive processing for players. Conclusions: Nine weeks multiple-object tracking training can improve the sports decision-making ability of novice female basketball players significantly. After training, the proportion of fixation in the key and related areas of players increased. During the decision-making process, the ERP components N1, P1, LPC decreased, and LNC increased, the result indicates that more cognitive resources were allocated effectively to the key information and optimal time points for completing decisions, demonstrating cognitive processing advantages.
