Sports Contribute to Total Moderate to Vigorous Physical Activity in School Children.
Article in Medicine and science in sports and exercise, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 16 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
introductionA third of all children spend at least 60 min·d in moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA) as recommended by the World Health Organization. We investigated the distribution of objectively measured physical activity (PA) intensities achieved by schoolchildren during physical education (PE) and organized youth sports (OYS) and the contribution of PE and OYS to the achievement of the PA recommendations.
methodsIn two surveys, PA of 396 children was measured using accelerometry during typical school weeks. Proportions (%) of sedentary behavior, light PA, and MVPA per day and particularly during sports were assessed in children 6-17 yr old. Adjusted odds ratios (AOR) were calculated to analyze the association between frequency (d·wk) and duration (min·wk) of PE and OYS and meeting the PA recommendations.
resultsAverage proportions of MVPA during PE and OYS ranged between 15% and 31%. Between 68% and 74% of children (6-10 yr) and between 27% and 37% of adolescents (11-17 yr) met the PA recommendations. In both age-groups, PE and OYS on at least 2 d·wk were both significantly associated with meeting the PA recommendations (AOR for PE = 3.60, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 2.05-6.31; AOR for OYS = 3.83, 95% CI = 2.09-6.99), compared with no PE or no OYS in that week. Likewise, significant AOR values were found for >90 min of PE per week (AOR = 3.48, 95% CI = 2.03-5.98) and >120 min of OYS per week (AOR = 3.72, 95% CI = 2.01-6.89), compared with no PE or no OYS in that week, respectively.
conclusionSchoolchildren spent less than one-third of PE and OYS in MVPA. PE and OYS were found to support children and adolescents to engage sufficiently in MVPA as recommended by the World Health Organization.
