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

Motor competence (MC) is defined as a global term that describes a person's ability to be proficient in a wide range of motor acts. Based on this principle, we have created a training program that aims to determine the effect of 12 weeks of enriched athletics sports training with complementary motor activities on MC in children aged between 6 and 10 years old. The subjects will be divided into two groups: (i) the athletics training group (IG_A) that will participate in athletics training three times a week for 12 weeks, with 60 min sessions; and (ii) the athletics training + other activities group (IG_B) that will participate in athletics training twice a week and will have another activity training (gymnastics, handball, swimming, and motor games) for 12 weeks, with 60 min sessions. The two groups will be assessed at baseline and 12 weeks later. The KTK3+ will be used to assess MC. A between-within ANOVA-RM (2 [groups] × 2 [time points]) will be conducted. The results and conclusions of the implementation program will be presented in another study.
