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

backgroundThis study investigated the effectiveness of interventions utilizing non-linear pedagogy for fundamental movement skills (NP-FMS) and a selection of handball sports skills (NP-HSS) on children's physical literacy and quality of life.

methodsA cohort of 130 children, aged 8-10 years, was randomly assigned to two experimental groups and one control group. Physical Literacy and quality of life were evaluated before and after the intervention using the Canadian Assessment of Physical Literacy tool and the Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory.

resultsThe findings revealed that both interventions, NP-FMS and NP-HSS, significantly influence the levels of physical literacy and quality of life. Furthermore, a significant improvement in physical literacy led to a notable enhancement in quality of life. Additionally, the interactive effect of age and group on physical literacy was found to be significant.

conclusionsLeveraging core principles of ecological dynamics through the deliberate integration of non-linear pedagogy and the constraint-led approach enables educators to systematically enrich affordance-rich environments, thereby fostering physical literacy and supporting improvements in children's overall quality of life.
