How acute affect dynamics impact longitudinal changes in physical activity among children.
Article in Journal of behavioral medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Research examined how acute affect dynamics, including stability and context-dependency, contribute to changes in children's physical activity levels as they transition from late-childhood to early-adolescence. Children (N = 151) (ages 8-12 years at baseline) participated in an ecological momentary assessment and accelerometry study with six semi-annual bursts (7 days each) across three years. A two-stage mixed-effects multiple location-scale model tested random intercept, variance, and slope estimates for positive affect as predictors of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA). Multi-year declines in MVPA were greater for children who had greater subject-level variance in positive affect. Children who experienced more positive affect when alone did not experience steeper declines in physical activity. Interventions aiming for long-term modifications in children's physical activity may focus on buffering the effects of within-day fluctuations in affect or tailoring programs to fit the needs of "acute dynamic process phenotypes."
