Fundamental Motor Skills Assessments Predicting Academic Performance: A Systematic Review.
Review in Medical journal of the Islamic Republic of Iran, 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
Background: Motor skills are crucial predictors of academic achievement in preschool children; effective motor skill interventions require assessment tools to evaluate motor performance and intervention efficacy. This study aimed to evaluate motor skill assessment tools in terms of their domains and psychometric properties to determine and understand the effect of motor ability on academic performance. Methods: A comprehensive electronic search was performed in PubMed, Scopus, ProQuest databases, and Google Scholar motor engine between January 2013 and May 2025 for all accessible articles involving the application of standardized, psychometrically sound motor proficiency skill tools. Results: A total of eight motor proficiency assessment tools were identified. The MABC-2 and BOT-2 were the most commonly used for predicting academic performance. The psychometric properties and applications of all tools were appraised and compared. Conclusion: Applying these standardized and psychometrically sound tools provides crucial insights into the link between motor competence and students' academic achievement, which has important implications for early identification, intervention, and educational practices.
