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 purpose of this systematic review was to summarize and evaluate the impact of physical activity (PA) interventions that were implemented in specific school settings on children's PA in those settings. Four research databases were searched to identify PA interventions. Of the 13 706 articles identified, 1352 abstracts were screened and 32 intervention studies were reviewed. Five intervention settings were identified (active travel, after school, classroom, physical education, and recess). Among these settings, a greater proportion of positive findings (ie, significant increase in PA) were found in the classroom (75%) and active travel (67%) settings. Additionally, a higher proportion of interventions implemented in these settings were of high methodological quality (active travel [33%] and classroom [33%]). These findings indicate that interventions in active travel and classrooms settings positively influence youth PA. Importantly, as evidenced in this review, evaluating intervention effects in the targeted setting may provide unique information for future researchers to consider when developing school-based multicomponent PA interventions.
