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
backgroundPhysical literacy (PL) is pivotal for improving sedentary behaviors, enhancing intrinsic motivation for physical activity, and supporting the growth and development of adolescents. This study aims to measure the current situation and internal pathway of PL among Chinese elementary school students.
methodsThis study was conducted from June to July 2022 and used multistage cluster sampling to select the study subjects. Questionnaire measurements were used to report the levels of PL among elementary school students and to explain the internal association among the various PL dimensions.
resultsThe average PL score among primary school students was 63.46 points. The qualification rates for PL in the three academic stages were 76.35%, 73.45%, and 59.17%, respectively. The study included 1499 boys (49.72%) and 1516 girls (50.28%). The average age was 9.04 ± 1.60 years. Physical motivation, physical competency and physical participation were positively associated with PL in each grade. Physical competency mediated the association between physical motivation and physical participation, explaining 56.40% of the effect.
conclusionThe qualification rates for PL in grades 5-6 was lower than those of students in grades 3-4 and grades 1-2. Physical competency explained 56.40% of the association between physical motivation and physical participation. CLINICAL TRIAL NUMBER: Not applicable.
