Physical Activity and Childhood Cancer: Present Status and Future Directions.
Article in American journal of lifestyle medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
In children diagnosed with cancer, both physical and mental health are significantly impacted. Physical activity has emerged as a promising non-pharmacological intervention to improve both physical and psychosocial wellbeing, with growing evidence supporting its role in improving survivorship. Notably, pediatric patients who engage in regular physical activity demonstrate reduced all-cause mortality, particularly among female patients. Current research in physical activity and pediatric oncology aims to further improve mental and physical health, cardiac function, survival outcomes, and overall care. This paper provides an overview of the current state and future directions of the field, emphasizing the need for stronger evidence to support the integration of physical activity as a standard component of care. As the field advances, coordinated efforts among clinicians, researchers, and policy stakeholders will be critical to ensure equitable access to regular physical activity support for all pediatric cancer patients.
