The Impact of Different Sports on Reducing Mobile Phone Addiction: A Systematic Review and Network Meta-Analysis.
Synthesis in Addiction biology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
This study employed network meta-analysis to evaluate the impact of several exercise interventions on mobile phone addiction. The aim is to determine the most effective exercise intervention measures and establish a reference for future intervention measures to improve mobile phone addiction. We systematically searched the relevant literature on the Web of Science, PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, China Knowledge, Wanfang and other domestic and foreign databases. We assessed the risk of bias according to the revised Cochrane Randomised Trial Bias Risk tool and performed traditional and Web-based meta-analyses using Review Manager 5.3 and Stata 14.0. The traditional meta-results showed that exercise intervention was superior to the control group in improving mobile phone addiction (SMD = -1.05, 95%CI -1.62, -0.48). Network meta-analysis results show that aerobic exercise (AE) is superior to other sports in reducing the total score of mobile phone addiction among teenagers, and the probability of aerobics becoming the best intervention for mobile phone addiction among teenagers is the highest (SUCRA = 95.6%). Exercise intervention can reduce the score of mobile phone addiction, while AE has more advantages in improving mobile phone addiction. However, due to the influence of sample size and the quality of the included literature, it is recommended that the results be further verified in the future.
