1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

objectivesTo examine the effectiveness and feasibility of We12BFit!, a family-focused intervention aimed at increasing physical fitness (PF) and motivation for physical activity (PA) in 7-year-old to 12-year-old children with developmental coordination disorder (DCD).

designA single-arm mixed methods small sample field study.

settingRehabilitation centres and schools for special education in The Netherlands.

participantsTwenty children with DCD diagnosis.

interventionsWe12BFit! consists of We12BFit!-PF and We12BFit!-Lifestyle PA. During We12BFit!-PF, cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF), muscle strength and anaerobic power were trained in small groups (10 weeks 2*60 min/week). We12Bfit!-Lifestyle PA, which addresses motivation for PA in children and parents, was added in week 6 of We12BFit!-PF and ended 12 weeks after We12BFit!-PF. OUTCOME MEASURES: The 20-Metre Shuttle Run Test (20mSRT), Muscle Power Sprint Test and Hand Held Dynamometry were performed before and after We12BFit!-PF and after We12BFit!-Lifestyle PA (T0-T1-T2). Parents and coaches were interviewed and trainers participated in a focus group to assess motivation for PA, perceived effectiveness, and feasibility of the intervention.

resultsAttendance rates of participants were 88% (We12BFit!-PF) and 89% (We12BFit!-Lifestyle PA). From T0 to T1, significant improvements were found in VO

conclusionsWe12BFit! resulted in significant improvements and maintenance of CRF and anaerobic power in a small group of children with DCD and seemed to improve motivation for PA. The group aspect of We12BFit!-PF, the high intensity and positive motivational climate of We12BFit!-PF may have improved children's self-efficacy. We12BFit! seems feasible to improve PF and PA in children with DCD. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER: NTR6334.
