The influence of sex on shoulder and hip joint resting position and mobility in elite golfers.
Article in Scientific reports, 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
Long-term asymmetric training in golf may lead to skeletal adaptations which can influence swing performance. This study investigated the relationship between joint resting position, dynamic range of motion (ROM) of the hip and shoulder, and clubhead velocity in golfers. Furthermore, it examined the sex-based differences in these parameters. We assessed the hip and shoulder joint resting position via infrared cameras and modified range of motion (vertical distance from the distal end of each fist to the T4 vertebral level) via functional movement screen and a plastic ruler in 24 elite golfers (12 males and 12 females), also analyzing sex differences in these measures and swing performance. A Pearson product-moment correlation coefficient was performed to analyze the relationship between the joint resting position and the ROM for the shoulder and hip. In addition, A MANOVA was conducted to analyze sex differences in the joint resting position, joint mobility, and club head velocity. The relationship between hip joint range of motion and clubhead velocity differed between sex, with a positive correlation (r = 0.71; R
