Integrated functional training versus conventional physical education for health-related physical fitness in preschool children: a 14-week randomized controlled trial.
Trial report in Frontiers in public health, 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
Background: Declining physical fitness in preschool children represents a critical public health challenge. Despite theoretical advantages of integrated functional training (IFT), few dose-matched RCT have examined the efficacy of IFT compared with conventional PE. The objective of this study was to determine whether a 14-week IFT intervention could produce better improvements in health-related fitness in children aged 4-6 years compared to conventional physical exercise. Methods: In this single-center, parallel-group, assessor-blinded randomized controlled trial, 60 preschoolers (mean age 5.30 ± 0.80 years) were randomly allocated (1, 1) to IFT ( Results: The IFT group demonstrated significantly greater improvements than the control group across all outcomes (all Conclusion: A 14-week kindergarten-based IFT program produced significantly greater and clinically meaningful improvements compared with Conventional PE.
