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

Objective: To study the relationship between lower limb joint moments, joint stiffness, and take-off velocity in high-level hurdlers. Methods: This study employed a Qualisys three-dimensional infrared motion-capture system synchronized with a force plate. Based on inverse dynamics principles, kinematic and kinetic data were collected during the clearance phase over the fourth hurdle in 16 elite male 110-m hurdlers. Results: During the landing phase, Group B had significantly higher peak joint moments at the hip, knee, and ankle compared to Group A ( Conclusions: During the take-off phase, Group B exhibited greater relative peak joint moments and joint stiffness at the hip, knee, and ankle compared to Group A. These measures were strongly correlated with clearance velocity, indicating that increasing joint moments and stiffness contributes to faster hurdle clearance. Among the lower-limb joints, hip and ankle performance had the most significant influence on clearance mechanics. Additionally, the fitted functional equations enable prediction of clearance velocity from joint moment data. Therefore, incorporating stretch-shortening cycle exercises in training to enhance lower-limb strength, increase joint moments, and improve joint stiffness should effectively enhance performance and competitive outcomes.
