Growing Up Active: How Sport/Active Leisure Shapes Minds and Success Using a Prospective and Person-Centered Approach to the Middle Childhood Life Course.
Review in Advances in experimental medicine and biology, 2026. 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
Globally, sedentary behavior is steadily increasing, creating a worldwide concern regarding the health and well-being of young people. Physical activity is recognized for its short- and long-term benefits. Organized sports offer an opportunity for children to develop better physical and psychological health. Parents play a crucial role in their children's involvement in sports. We examine long-term associations between various individual and family factors in early childhood and participation in extracurricular sports between kindergarten and fourth grade.Our previous studies reinforce the longitudinal association between individual and family factors and subsequent participation in organized sports. The family environment is a crucial developmental vector for individuals. The resources available within the family unit enhance children's opportunities to participate in extracurricular sports activities. In sum, parental investment in sports has the potential to improve long-term population health.The current chapter emphasizes the importance of implementing educational initiatives aimed at raising parental awareness of the benefits of physical activity. Public policymakers would benefit from strengthening movement-related policies to promote population well-being. Financial investment could contribute to the accessibility of sports outside the school setting.
