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: Social support has been identified as a key factor influencing adolescents' engagement in physical activities. However, the relationship between middle school girls' physical activity levels and the actual social support they receive remains unclear. Aim: This study aims to explore the support mechanisms that promote increased physical activity participation among middle school girls. Methods: A survey was conducted with 1,371 middle school girls from 16 regions and cities in China. The questionnaire included the Physical Activity Questionnaire (PAQ), the Social Support and Exercise Survey, the Physical Activity Rank Scale, and the Family Affluence Scale (FAS). Linear regression was used to examine the relationships among family support, out-of-school exercise behavior, in-school exercise behavior, and the physical activity levels of middle school girls. Results: In-school physical activity participation (6.6%) was higher than out-of-school participation (5.5%) among urban middle school girls. Physical activity levels were significantly positively correlated with social support from family, peers, and teachers ( Conclusion: Family support significantly enhances urban middle school girls' participation in physical activities. Higher parental education levels may reduce girls' activity participation, while improved family economic conditions may decrease emotional support but increase informational support. The support of friends and teachers will make up for the decrease in family support. A school-based social support network is essential to address disparities in activity support and implement health intervention programs for middle school girls.
