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

Educational digitization has made integrating digital technology into physical education a pivotal strategy for transforming pedagogy. Guided by the Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) framework, this study addresses two challenges in Chinese university physical education: the lack of evidence-based research on technology integration, and the decline in student physical fitness alongside the waning effectiveness of traditional table tennis instruction. We propose a "3 + 1" digital teaching model integrating multimedia, virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), and artificial intelligence (AI) into a cohesive curriculum, aiming to enhance students' physical fitness and table tennis proficiency. We employed a sequential explanatory mixed-methods design. Initially, a survey of 1,200 undergraduates enrolled in elective table tennis courses across 10 universities in Guangxi, China, assessed instructional needs. Subsequently, a 16-week quasi-experimental study involving 270 students from Guangxi University (experimental group,
