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
Sedentary behavior among adolescents is a growing concern globally, including in Pakistan, due to its association with negative physical and psychological health outcomes. Fragmented time agility training has arisen as a prospective solution to tackle these challenges. The proposed work evaluates the impact of a structured six-week agility training protocol on sedentary behavior, mood, and stress among adolescents aged 12-18 in Pakistan. A total of 100 participants (50 intervention, 50 control) were recruited from three schools in Islamabad, with equal representation of males and females. Participants were randomly assigned to an intervention group that completed daily 30-min agility training sessions (including high-knee running, lateral shuffles, and cone drills, five days a week) or a control group that maintained their usual routines. Sedentary behavior (sitting and screen time), mood [Profile of Mood States (POMS)], and stress levels [Perceived Stress Scale (PSS)] were assessed at baseline and post-intervention. Differences between groups were analyzed using independent
