The role of physical activity in social and behavioral skills of children with autism spectrum disorder: a case-controlled study.
Article in International journal of developmental disabilities, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Objectives: Despite the numerous benefits of regular participation in physical activities for health and social engagement, children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) who experience difficulties in social and behavioral skills are less likely to participate in physical activities compared to their peers. There is a need for more research on the impact of regular participation in physical activities on social and behavioral skills in children diagnosed with ASD. This study aimed to compare the social and behavioral skills of children diagnosed with ASD who participate in physical activity with those who do not. Methods: The participants are parents of children diagnosed with ASD ( Results: According to the analysis, statistically significant differences were found in the social skill scale and behavioral skills of children who participated in physical activity compared to those who did not. ( Conclusions: There was a difference between the behavioral and social skills of children diagnosed with ASD between the ages of 10-15 who do and do not participate in physical activity. This was an indication that physical activity was a positive aspect. It is recommended that future studies examine the effect of physical activity on children with autism more thoroughly.
