Standards-based physical education in schools: The role of state laws.
Article in Translational journal of the American College of Sports Medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Purpose: Examine the association of state physical education (PE) laws (https://class.cancer.gov) with school policies addressing motor skill development, physical activity (PA) participation, and health-enhancing physical fitness (https://www.cdc.gov/healthyyouth/data/shpps/data.htm). Methods: National school-level data on PE standards were obtained from the 2014 School Health Policies and Practices Study (SHPPS) of US schools for analytical samples of 408-410 schools in 43 states. These data were linked to Classification of Laws Associated with School Students (CLASS) data, which reflect the strength of state-PE curriculum laws and the associated state PE curriculum standards. Logistic regressions and generalized linear models with a complementary log-log link examined associations between state law and school-level standards. Results: Compared to having no state law, weak law (OR: 5.07, 95% CI: 1.02-25.27) or strong law (OR: 2.96, 95% CI: 1.04-8.37) was associated with higher odds of school PE standards addressing motor skill development, while only strong state law was associated with higher prevalence of addressing achievement and maintenance of physical fitness (coefficient: 0.63, 95% CI: 0.12, 1.14). State laws were not associated with addressing PA participation. Conclusions: Schools were more likely to address motor skills and physical fitness development when states had strong PE laws.
