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
The lack of physical activity (PA) amongst children is a public health concern in many industrialized countries. School-based daily physical activity (DPA) policies are a promising intervention for increasing PA levels amongst children. Informed by a logic model framework, this study examines the factors associated with meeting a 'top-down' DPA objective in the context of a 'bottom-up' implementation of a school-based DPA initiative in Quebec, Canada. An online survey assessing school-level inputs, outputs and outcomes was sent to all participating schools (415). Crude odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated using logistic regression to evaluate potential associations between factors (inputs and outputs) and the school's adherence to providing at least 60 minutes of DPA (outcome). Adjusted ORs (AORs) and 95% CIs were calculated using a multivariate logistic regression to identify the best set of factors to predict adherence to the DPA objective. A total of 404 schools completed the questionnaire, amongst which 71% reported meeting the DPA target by implementing school-tailored activities. Three factors were identified as the best set of school inputs and outputs to predict meeting the objective: financial resources (per student) (AOR = 1.02; 95% CI 1.01-1.03), a shared vision amongst the school-team members that PA benefits learning outcomes (AOR = 1.94; 95% CI 1.04-3.19) and having conducted a detailed situational analysis (AOR = 1.89; 95% CI 1.00-3.58). Given that 'bottom-up' implementation might favour the development of policies that are more acceptable to stakeholders, our results should be considered by decision-makers and school administrators when implementing DPA initiatives.
