Is physical activity associated with resting heart rate in boys and girls? A representative study controlled for confounders.
Article in Jornal de pediatria. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
objectiveInvestigate the relationship between different domains of physical activity and resting heart rate (RHR) in boys and girls.
methodThe sample included 1011 adolescents, aged between 10 and 17 years. RHR was measured by a heart rate monitor and physical activity was assessed in total and in three different domains (school, occupational, and sports practice) by a questionnaire. Anthropometry was directly obtained for body mass index and central fat. Ethnicity, sedentary behavior, and smoking habits were self-reported and used to adjust the analysis, through hierarchical linear regression.
resultsTotal physical activity was associated with low RHR in boys (β=-0.52; 95% CI: -0.92, -0.12) and girls (β=-0.67; 95% CI: -1.07, -0.28). Although sporting physical activities were associated with low RHR in both boys (β=-0.58; 95% CI: -1.05, -0.11) and girls (β=-0.87; 95% CI: -1.34, -0.39), occupational physical activity was related to low RHR only in boys (β=-1.56; 95% CI: -2.99, -0.14).
conclusionThe practice of physical activity in the sport practice domain and total physical activity were related to low RHR in both sexes, while occupational physical activities were associated with RHR only in boys.
