Comprehensive Evaluation of Fundamental Motor Skills: Insights From the Test of Gross Motor Development-3.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundA comprehensive evaluation of basic motor abilities is provided by the Test of Gross Motor Development-3 (TGMD-3), which assesses 13 basic motor skills. These skills are categorized into locomotor and ball skill subsets.
objectiveAn assessment of gross motor skills in diverse populations with the TGMD-3 is the goal of this study.
methodsFrom control and intervention groups, locomotor subset scores were collected. In addition to identifying developmental delays, the study highlights the TGMD-3's ability to detect deficits in motor skills. Depending on whether a skill meets the criteria, it is scored as either a 1 or a 0. A locomotor score of 46, a ball skill score of 54, and an overall gross motor score of 100 are the maximum scores.
resultsThe control group's baseline scores increased from 34.3±0.9 to 37.3±0.7 by the sixth week (p = 0.03), while the intervention group's scores rose from 36.5±1.1 to 40.9±0.6 (p = 0.0007). Both groups also showed similar trends in gross motor coordination scores.
conclusionGross motor skill assessment is robust across different populations, making the TGMD-3 an effective tool for improving motor development and performance.
