Translating School Physical Education and Activity Policies into Practice: A Case Study.
Article in Translational journal of the American College of Sports Medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundPublic health experts recommend school-based policies as a population based approach to increase youth physical activity. The purpose of this case study is to describe one, largely rural, state's efforts to translate this recommendation into practice. Details about the genesis, implementation and evolution of two state level policies (physical education and physical activity), as well as in-house efforts of a State Department of Education to monitor policy compliance and challenges encountered are described. Two specific years are highlighted, due to policy and monitoring enhancements made during those particular time periods.
methodsData for this paper come from the West Virginia Department of Education for two time periods: 2013-2014 and 2014-2015 (n=369 elementary schools). Descriptive statistics for quantitative data and content analysis for qualitative data were used to document school level compliance and provide context for implementation challenges.
resultsGreater than 70% of school principals reported achievement of physical education and physical activity policy expectations for each year. Limited staff was the predominant explanation for nonfulfillment of physical education expectations, followed by lack of time and facilities. Recess and classroom-based physical activity were the primary strategies used to comply with the physical activity expectations. PE and PA policy compliance varied significantly by certain school characteristics in each school year studied.
conclusionsFurther investigation is warranted on how states translate public health policy recommendations into practice, including how physical education and physical activity policies are developed and monitored at the state level and how to support states and schools with monitoring and implementation challenges.
