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

backgroundSports vision training improves perceptual-motor skills crucial for performance and injury prevention. Despite proven benefits, little is known about its perception and use among coaches in Portugal.

methodsA cross-sectional online survey was completed by active coaches from various sports, gathering sociodemographic data, awareness of visual training, perceived importance of ten visual skills, and implementation in training plans. Statistical analyses included descriptive tests to summarize sample characteristics,

resultsAmong 155 participants (88.5% men; mean age 36.9 ± 11.8 years), 73.2% reported incorporating visual training, with no association with self-reported knowledge (

conclusionsVisual training implementation is high but not always linked to formal knowledge. Adoption is influenced by sport and demographics, and the counterintuitive role of visual concentration underscores the need for tailored educational programs to enhance performance and reduce injury risk.
