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: School environment is considered one of the important external factors that affect the formation of physical activity habits among teenagers, and its mechanism of action and time effect still require verification through longitudinal evidence. Methods: In this survey, junior and senior high school students in Shanghai were selected as samples. A three-time point tracking design was adopted to obtain valid questionnaires totaling 1,235. Descriptive statistics, correlation analysis, and cross-lag model analysis were conducted through SPSS 24.0 and Mplus 8.3, respectively, to explore the dynamic influence of school environmental factors on physical activity habits. Results: The results indicated that the attraction of facilities and environment, the norms of teachers' capabilities, and the guarantee of curriculum design could all be crucial positive predictors for the formation of physical activity habits at subsequent time points ( Conclusion: School environmental factors, especially the guarantee mechanisms at the levels of teaching and curriculum, play a continuous promoting role in the formation of physical activity habits of teenagers. The study recommends that in reforming school physical education, more emphasis should be laid on integrating the curriculum to allow teacher support and the opening of sports venues in order to promote long-term consolidation and continuation of the activity habits.
