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

Objective: This study aimed to develop and validate a scientific fitness literacy (SFL) assessment model for Chinese children and adolescents and to examine the associations between SFL and its key influencing factors within an integrated social-ecological and self-determination theory framework. Methods: Data were collected from 147,104 students (grades 4-12) across 31 provinces in mainland China using a multi-stage cluster random sampling design. SFL was assessed across four dimensions: knowledge, attitude, skills, and habits. The relative contributions of five influencing factors-lifestyle, individual socialization, family, school, and social environment-were analyzed using multiple regression models. Results: The overall SFL index was 65.8 (range 0-100), with knowledge (59.2) and skills (58.2) scoring below the passing threshold. Lifestyle ( Conclusion: The integrated framework provides a more comprehensive explanatory model for SFL than approaches that focus solely on internal factors. Interventions should prioritize lifestyle and socialization while placing greater emphasis on family and social environments rather than relying solely on school-based factors.
