Trends of Physical Activity Among Baltic Adolescents Through an Intersectional Lens: A Repeated Cross-Sectional Study.
Article in The Journal of school health, 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
backgroundThis study examined trends in physical activity among Baltic adolescents across the intersection of gender and socio-economic status (SES).
methodsData were gathered from Health Behavior in School-aged Children (2001-2018) (n = 61,619). No or low moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) (≤ 1 day/week of 60 min/day of MVPA), insufficient physical activity (not engaging in 60 min/day of MVPA daily), gender, and SES were self-reported.
resultsFrom 2001 to 2018, girls and adolescents with low and medium SES experienced a higher probability of no or low MVPA and insufficient physical activity than boys and adolescents with high SES, respectively. Compared to boys with high SES, the other gender × SES groups were more likely to experience insufficient physical activity, with differences more consistent among girls. IMPLICATIONS FOR SCHOOL HEALTH POLICY, PRACTICE, AND EQUITY: Actions to promote physical activity should prioritize school-aged girls from disadvantaged socio-economic backgrounds.
conclusionsPhysical activity is unequally distributed among adolescents, with girls and adolescents with lower SES being more likely to have no or low MVPA and insufficient physical activity in the Baltic States. Notable inequalities in physical activity emerged when the intersection of gender and SES was considered simultaneously, especially for no or low MVPA.
