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

Objective: To assessment the secular trend in physical fitness of children and adolescents aged 7-18 years in Xinjiang from 1985 to 2019. Method: The data are derived from test scores of Xinjiang Chinese children and adolescents aged 7-18 years by the China National Student Health Monitoring Centre National Student Physical Fitness Monitoring in 1985, 1991, 1995, 2000, 2005, 2010, 2014, and 2019. The physical fitness indicators included speed, cardiorespiratory fitness, muscular strength, power, and flexibility. Results: The overall physical fitness of Xinjiang children and adolescents aged 7-18 in Xinjiang demonstrated downward trend from 1985 to 2019. During the period from 1985 to 1995, the speed, power, and cardiorespiratory fitness improved significantly but worsened from 1995 to 2005. The pace of decline in physical fitness slowed down from 2005 to 2014. Some components of physical fitness improved, but most components of physical fitness continued to worsen from 2014 to 2019. Conclusion: In conclusion, the overall physical fitness of Xinjiang children and adolescents aged 7-18 years worsened from 1985 to 2019, and some relatively positive trends have been found in recent years. Trends in physical fitness vary among children and adolescents by gender and age, and these differences should be emphasized in the development of relevant physical fitness policies as well as interventions.
