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

Background: School physical education is an important population-level health intervention for improving youth fitness. The purpose of this study is to determine the causal impact of New York City's PE Works program on student cardiorespiratory fitness. Methods: This longitudinal study (2014-2019) includes 581 elementary schools (n=315,999 4 Results: After four years of staggered PE Works implementation, 49.7% of students per school (95% CI: 42.6%, 54.2%) met age/sex-specific cardiorespiratory fitness standards. Had PE Works Conclusion: PE Works, which included providing PE teachers, training for classroom teachers, and administrative/teacher support for PE, positively impacted student cardiorespiratory health. Mandating and funding multilevel, multicomponent PE programs is an important public health intervention to increase children's cardiorespiratory fitness.
