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: Students' adherence to physical activity can increase the duration of their participation in such activities and promote their physical and mental health. So, examining the factors related to students' adherence to physical activity is particularly important. Therefore, the primary aim of this study was to examine the correlation between peer support and adherence to physical exercise with the mediating role of self-regulation among high school students. Methods: This study employed a descriptive correlational approach. The statistical sample comprised 373 male and female high school students of Gonbad Kavous, Golestan Province, Iran in 2024. For data collection, standardized questionnaires on peer support, self-regulation, and adherence to physical activity were used. The data were analyzed employing SPSS version 25 and Smart PLS version 4, with a significance threshold set at P<0.05. Also, statistical techniques such as Spearman's rank correlation coefficient and structural equation modeling (SEM) were used to analyze the data. Results: The study results demonstrated a statistically significant positive correlation between peer support and self-regulation (β=0.57, T=15.40). The findings further revealed a statistically significant and positive correlation between peer support and adherence to physical activity (β=0.29; T=7.07). Finally, the positive relationship between peer support and adherence to sports was empirically validated, with the mediating role of self-regulation (β=0.31, T=7.46). Conclusions: The findings indicated that peer support has the potential to foster beneficial outcomes, including enhanced self-regulation and greater adherence to physical activity among students. Students spend a significant part of their time at school with their peers, and peer support can be used to keep their adherence to physical activity.
