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

objectivesTo examine the associations between 23 accelerometer-derived physical activity levels and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in 10-year-old children.

resultsThis study analyzed cross-sectional baseline data from the ASK study, a randomized controlled trial. The Kidscreen-27 questionnaire assessed HRQoL, with the "physical well-being" domain as the primary outcome. Physical activity levels were measured using ActiGraph GT3X + accelerometers, capturing 23 intensity bands ranging from 0 to 99 to ≥ 10,000 counts per minute (cpm). Partial least squares regression analysis was used to explore the associations between physical activity and HRQoL. The study included 722 fifth-grade children (mean age 10.2 ± 0.3 years, mean waist circumference 61.8 ± 7.4 cm, 51% male). In the overall cohort, physical activity accounted for 5.23% of the variance in physical well-being, with 2.03% for girls and 9.06% for boys. Among boys with overweight/obesity, the explained variance increased to 20.03%, compared to 8.63% for those without. For girls, no association was observed for those without overweight/obesity, whereas 8.93% of the variance was explained for those with overweight/obesity. High-intensity physical activity (6000-7000 cpm) showed the strongest associations, though positive relationships were evident across all intensity levels.
