Cross-sectional and prospective impact of reallocating sedentary time to physical activity on children's body composition.
Trial report in Pediatric obesity, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 25 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
backgroundThe amount of time children spend in sedentary behaviours may have adverse health effects.
objectiveTo examine the substitution effects of displacing a fixed duration of sedentary time with physical activity (PA) on children's body composition.
methodsWe included 386 children (197 boys). Outcomes were body mass index, waist circumference, total body fat mass and trunk fat mass assessed by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. Sedentary time and PA were measured with accelerometers. Data were analysed by isotemporal analyses estimating the effect of reallocating 15 and 30 min d
resultsReallocating 15 and 30 min d
conclusionsSubstituting sedentary time with MVPA using isotemporal analysis is associated with positive effects on body composition.
