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

Introduction: This study evaluated the FIT FIRST FOR ALL program's effects on health-related quality of life (HRQOL) among Faroese schoolchildren aged 7-16 years during a 10-week school-wide intervention. Methods: A non-randomized controlled design included 360 pupils from an intervention (INT, Results: A significant Time × Group interaction ( Discussion: The FIT FIRST FOR ALL program improved physical well-being, particularly among boys and younger age groups, showcasing its potential to influence selected dimensions of HRQOL through structured school-based physical activity. These findings suggest that tailoring the program to specific age and gender groups could further strengthen its scalability and effectiveness across diverse school settings.
