Do Functional Movement Screens Predict Body Composition Changes after Resistance Training?
Article in Sports medicine international open, 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
Although the function movement screen (FMS) has been widely used in the general population, no study to date has used the FMS as a preparticipation screen for individuals with breast cancer (BC) engaging in an exercise regimen. Even though individuals with BC are anthropometrically similar to individuals without cancer, the lack of studies assessing the FMS in individuals with BC may potentially hinder exercise prescription. Therefore, we aim to examine the relationships of the FMS score to anthropometric biomarkers in individuals with BC before undergoing an exercise regimen. One-hundred and twelve women with BC underwent a thrice-weekly three-month dose-escalated exercise regimen utilizing multi-joint compound movements and linear progression balanced with resistance training volume to elicit hypertrophy. FMS score and anthropometric markers were assessed pre- and post-intervention. With significance set at p≤0.05, baseline FMS scores correlated significantly with all anthropometric markers, and was similar to previous studies published in non-cancer populations. However, baseline FMS scores were not associated with changes in anthropometric markers, from pre- to post-intervention. While the baseline FMS score was not associated with changes in anthropometric markers, the similar correlation found in our study compared to previous studies suggest that the FMS can be used as a preparticipation in individuals with BC to help guide the exercise regimen. Future studies designed to elicit weight loss in individuals with BC should assess whether the baseline FMS score is predictive of anthropometric changes.
