Physical activity and sports behavior of children and adolescents with and without disabilities from Germany: results from the cross-sectional KiGGS wave 2 study.
Article in Archives of public health = Archives belges de sante publique, 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
backgroundPhysical activity (PA) offers significant health benefits for children and adolescents with (CAWD) and without (CAWoD) disabilities. As there's no data about the PA in different settings of CAWD in Germany, the present study aims to identify and compare PA participation in CAWD and CAWoD, focusing on meeting the World Health Organizational (WHO) PA recommendations and participation in sports activities (non-organised and organised sport in higher intensities) and sports clubs.
methodThis study used data from the cross-sectional nationwide German Health Interview and Examination Survey for Children and Adolescents (KiGGS). To analyse and compare PA behaviour, Pearson Chi²-tests and binary logistic regression models were performed.
resultsAll PA values were analysed in 250 CAWD and 12,557 CAWoD aged 0-17 years. In CAWD PA values were lower than in CAWoD. Only 21.6% (54) of CAWD met the PA recommendations. Regarding participation in sport clubs, 44.6% (108) of CAWD compared to 60.3% (7,511) of CAWoD participated. Across sporting activities, 60.4% (151) of CAWD participate compared to 75.2% (9,488) of CAWoD. Statistically significant differences were identified across sport club participation (OR: 0.54, 95% CI [0.45, 0.78]) as well as sporting activities (OR: 0.59, 95% CI [0.42, 0.71]). DISCUSSION: CAWD are less active compared to their peers without disabilities, showing significantly lower participation in sporting activities and sport clubs.
