School Staff's Perspectives on the Adoption of Elementary-School Physical Activity Approaches: A Qualitative Study.
Article in American journal of health education, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 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
backgroundThere is a need to understand how schools adopt physical activity approaches (curricula, programs and practices), but few studies report on this process. PURPOSE: To obtain elementary school staff's perspectives regarding how their schools are currently adopting physical activity approaches.
methodsWe recruited 15 participants from four job types in an urban Texas school district to participate in semi-structured interviews. We coded and analyzed interviews using directed content analysis and iterative categorization.
resultsWe identified four themes pertaining to how the district, schools, and teachers contribute to the adoption of approaches. Themes included: (1) Staff identify new approaches through numerous channels; (2) Adoption occurs at multiple organizational levels; (3) District staff fulfilled a supporting role in the adoption process; and (4) School staff's perceptions of approach characteristics influence adoption. DISCUSSION: We found that schools adopt physical activity approaches at both the district- and school-level. Additionally, multiple stakeholders played a role in the adoption process and those roles varied across approaches. TRANSLATION TO HEALTH EDUCATION PRACTICE: Time, money, space, staff, competing priorities, limited information, the school's mission, and the benefits an approach provides to children are factors that researches and practitioners should consider when starting a new physical activity approach.
