The Effects of Exercise Training on Physical Activity Level, Daily Living Activities, and Participation in Children with Hemophilia.
Article in Turkish archives of pediatrics, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
objectiveHemophilia is an uncommon disorder that is difficult to diagnose and manage. Effective movement and individual physiotherapy interventions can improve physical activity levels, quality of life, and participation in children with hemophilia. This study aimed to investigate the effects of individually planned exercise on joint health, functional level, pain, participation, and quality of life in children with hemophilia. MATERIALS AND
methodsTwenty-nine children with hemophilia (aged 8-18 years) were randomized into either an exercise group with physiotherapists (n = 14) or a counseling home-exercise group (n = 15). Pain, range of motion, and strength were measured using a visual analog scale, goniometer, and digital dynamometer, respectively. Joint health, functional capacity, participation, quality of life, and physical activity were assessed using the Hemophilia Joint Health Status, 6-Minute Walk Test, Canadian Occupation Performance Measure, Pediatrics Quality of Life, and International Physical Activity Questionnaire, respectively. The exercises were planned individually according to the needs of both groups. Additionally, the exercise group performed the exercise with a physiotherapist. Interventions were performed 3 days/week for 8 weeks.
resultsThe Hemophilia Joint Health Status, 6-Minute Walk Test, Canadian Occupation Performance Measure, International Physical Activity Questionnaire, muscle strength, and range of motion (elbow, knee, and ankle) were significantly improved in both groups (P < .05). Compared with the counseling home-exercise program group, the exercise group had better results in the 6-Minute Walk Test, muscle strength, and range of motion (knee and ankle flexion) (P < .05). No significant difference was found in pain and Pediatrics Quality of Life scores in both groups.
conclusionUsing individually planned exercise in children with hemophilia is an effective physiotherapy approach to improve physical activity, participation, functional level, and joint health.
