1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

purposeTo investigate the association between preschool children's 24-h movement behaviors and health-related quality of life (HRQoL), exploring the impact of time reallocation among these behaviors and examining gender differences.

methodsThis study analysed HRQoL and 24-h movement behaviors of 349 preschool children in three kindergartens in Beijing, China, selected through convenience sampling using a cross-sectional study design. A t-test and multivariate analysis of variance methods were used to investigate gender differences. The study examined the relationship between 24-h movement behaviors and HRQoL using component data analysis and component isochronic substitution model methods, with an investigation into gender differences in the overall association.

resultsThe study found a negative correlation between sedentary behavior (SB) and overall HRQoL score (γ = - 11.92, p < 0.05) in the entire sample, particularly affecting physical health score (γ = - 14.39, p < 0.01). Among boys, SB was negatively correlated with the HRQoL total score (γ = - 15.83, p < 0.05), while sleep was positively correlated with psychosocial health scores (γ = 17.814, p = 0.01). However, there was no significant association found between 24-h movement behaviors and HRQoL in girls. When using the component isochronic substitution model, reallocating 30 min from sedentary behavior to sleep increased the total HRQoL score of preschool children by 0.865 points (95% CI 0.071, 1.658). In contrast, reallocating 30 min from sleep to sedentary behavior resulted in a decrease of 0.850 points (95% CI - 1.638, - 0.062) in the total HRQoL score.

conclusionsTo improve preschool children's HRQoL, it is recommended to reduce their sedentary behavior time and increase their sleep time. Public health policymakers should consider this when developing 24-h movement behavior guidelines for preschoolers.
