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

The scheduling (i.e., timing) of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) during basketball sessions may influence physical development and technical-tactical execution under fatigue, yet limited evidence exists to guide practice. This study compared the effects of early-session HIIT (HIITearly) versus post-session HIIT (HIITpost) on aerobic fitness and technical performance under fatigue in youth basketball players. Thirty-six male athletes (16.5 ± 0.7 years) were stratified and randomly assigned to HIITearly, HIITpost, or control groups in a six-week intervention (2 sessions/week). All groups followed the same HIIT protocol; only timing varied. Physical fitness was assessed via the 30-15 Intermittent Fitness Test (VIFT), and technical accuracy for passes, dribles and shots was assessed during a 3v3 game conducted immediately after the 30-15 test. Results showed a significant improvement in VIFT for both HIIT groups (HIITearly: p < 0.001; HIITpost: p < 0.001), with no change in the control group (p = 0.705). HIITearly led to greater improvements than control in passes accuracy (p < 0.001), shot accuracy (p < 0.001), and dribble accuracy (p < 0.001). HIITpost showed smaller, yet significant, improvements in passes (p < 0.001), shots (p < 0.001), and dribbles (p < 0.001), while the control group exhibited only minor changes. Statistical interactions for all technical variables were significant, with particularly large effects for passes (ηp
