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
This study analyzed the transition of Brazilian volleyball athletes from youth national teams to adult national teams, and examined the relative age effect in the selection of athletes for youth categories and their transition to the adult category. In youth categories, 326 athletes participating in the U18 and U20 women's and U19 and U21 men's world championships between 2001 and 2021 were prospectively analyzed. In the adult category, a retrospective analysis was conducted on 55 athletes who participated in the Olympic Games or World Championships between 2004 and 2022. Our results showed that approximately 20% of athletes participating in youth categories advanced to the adult national team. However, around 80% of adult teams comprised athletes who were part of youth categories. An athlete who progressed through both youth categories was 35 times more likely to be selected to the adult national teams compared to an athlete who only participated in the U18/U19 youth team. In youth national teams, there was a higher call-up rate for athletes born earlier. Despite this, athletes born later were more likely to advance to the adult national team.
