School- and home-based hybrid exercise intervention to prevent summer fitness loss in children: protocol for a feasibility study of the keep moving in a structured summer programme.
Article in BMJ open, 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
introductionSchools are key settings to intervene for the purpose of health promotion in children. However, the effectiveness of school-based interventions remains limited, potentially related to the obesogenic behaviours observed during holidays as posited by the structured days hypothesis. This study aims to evaluate the feasibility, process evaluation and preliminary efficacy of the keep moving in a structured summer (KEMOSS) intervention among Chinese children. METHODS AND ANALYSIS: The KEMOSS intervention is an 8-week hybrid programme comprising two digitally supported home-based phases (weeks 1-2 and 7-8) and a structured school-based phase (weeks 3-6). The school-based phase will be a full-day scheduled programme that replicates the routine of regular school days, with a coach-led structured physical activity lesson and a free-play lesson embedded in the morning and afternoon, respectively. During the home-based phases, participants will be encouraged to complete prescribed exercises independently with support from mHealth reminders and instructional materials and to achieve a minimum of 10 000 steps per day. Feasibility, process evaluation and preliminary efficacy outcomes will be assessed using a mixed-methods approach. Quantitative data will be analysed using SPSS, while qualitative data from interviews and focus groups will be analysed thematically using NVivo. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: Ethical approval has been obtained from the Ningbo University Ethics Committee (TY2026028). Findings will inform the refinement of the intervention and the design of a future definitive trial. Results will be disseminated through peer-reviewed publications and conference presentations. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER: ChiCTR2600126738.
