Immediate effect of exercise and music on attention among school-age youth: A comprehensive experimental study.
Article in Medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
BACKGROUND/
objectivesLow attention level, especially in school-age children in preadolescence and adolescence, affects educational activities. The effects of different types of music and exercise on attention level have been an important subject of research for many years. The aim of this study was to examine the effect of aerobic and yoga exercise intervention program applied synchronously with different types of music on the attention level of primary 2 students studying. MATERIALS AND
methodsIn this study, 19 male (age = 12.63 ± 0.83 years, height = 145.78 ± 4.58 cm, weight = 47.73 ± 7.94 kg, body mass index = 22.43 ± 3.51 kg/m2), 27 female students (age = 12.40 ± 1.15 years, height = 141.03 ± 3.34 cm, weight = 42.14 ± 4.13 kg, body mass index = 21.15 ± 1.45 kg/m2) were included. Participants performed 3 different exercise programs (no exercise [NE], aerobic exercise [AE], and yoga exercise [YE]) without music (NM), listening to traditional music (TM), classical music, and current popular music (PM), after which participants' attention was analyzed using the Burdon Attention Test.
resultsIn the NE group, participants' attentional levels were lower in the NM condition compared to TM and PM (P = .019, Δ = -7.86, Std. Err = 2.23; P = .001, Δ = -9.74, Std. Err = 2.22, respectively). During AE and YE, different music genres had no effect (P > .05). As a result of the post hoc analysis, the attention test results obtained from the NM and TM genres in the NE protocol were significantly lower than the attention test results obtained from all music genres during AE and YE (P < .05). There was no significant difference between the values obtained from NE-PM and the values obtained from AE and YE (P > .05). At the same time, attention test results did not change between AE and YE during any music genre.
conclusionsIn conclusion, exercise and music are important elements to increase the attention level of school-age individuals. In addition, PM may be an important factor in increasing attention levels in these individuals.
