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: This study aimed to examine the relationships among psychological resilience, exercise motivation, and sports participation in adolescents, with a focus on demographic differences, the mediating role of exercise motivation, and structural invariance across gender. Methods: A total of 2,588 adolescents from grades 7 to 12 were recruited using stratified random sampling, ensuring representation across school levels and rural-urban residence. Demographic differences were analyzed using independent sample Results: Significant demographic differences were observed. Males reported higher levels of psychological resilience, exercise motivation, and sports participation compared to females ( Conclusion: These findings highlight the importance of psychological resilience and exercise motivation in promoting adolescents' sports participation. The study provides empirical evidence and practical insights for designing targeted interventions to support diverse demographic groups and enhance long-term physical activity engagement among adolescents.
