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
Considering the role of school adjustment in the development of adolescent populations, it is particularly essential to find ways to improve the school adjustment of middle school students and to develop further the socialization of adolescents. Based on the 2014-2015 data of the China Education Panel Survey, the effects of physical exercise on adolescents' school adjustment and possible mechanisms were systematically explored. Based on the ordinary least squares method, instrumental variable method, and propensity score matching method, the results of the study showed that physical exercise significantly improved adolescents' school adjustment. The results of the mediation effects test indicated that physical exercise not only enhances adolescents' school adjustment by alleviating negative emotions, but also enhances adolescents' school adjustment by improving prosocial behavior. This study reveals the mechanism of physical exercise and adolescents' school adjustment, and provides reasonable and effective suggestions for better promoting adolescents' school adjustment and formulating related policies.
