Home-based Bodyweight Training: An Emergency Approach to Enhance Students' Quality of Life.
Article in International journal of school health, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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: A sedentary lifestyle declines quality of life and would be a critical threat to the future. Planning for post-COVID life must be a strategy during confinement. In this paper, we aimed to investigate the effect of home-based training as an available program on students' quality of life. Methods: This was a quasi-experimental study with a pretest-posttest design. The participants were selected from male high school students in Tehran, Iran, during 2020-2021. Thirty high school students were randomly assigned to home-based training (HBT, n=15) and non-exercise control group (CG, n=15). Simple random sampling method was used to randomly assign the study participants to test and control groups. HBT was performed four times a week, 60 minutes per session, for eight weeks. The short version of the World Health Organization Quality of Life (QoL) instrument was used to evaluate QoL, covering four domains: self-perceived physical health, psychological health, social relationships, and environment. Following the confirmation of data normality via the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, ANCOVA was employed to assess training effectiveness, and Levene's test was used to verify variance homogeneity assumptions. Results: After post-test, mean self-perceived physical health (CG) stood at (60.91±14.81), markedly lower than that of the HBT group (86.14±12.54) (P=0.001). Furthermore, mean psychological health in the CG and HBT groups were (54.03±23.98) and (73.49±14.28), respectively, exhibiting statistical significance (P=0.001). However, no remarkable changes occurred in the social (P=0.992) and environmental domain (P=0.146) after training protocol. None of the variables exhibited significant alterations in the CG group. Conclusion: Noticeable outcomes of home-based bodyweight training discerned in the physical, psychological, and general domain of QoL after the program. It is suggested to evaluate other aspects of students' lives like home-based family training to make a passable bridge from COVID-pandemic to post-COVID life.
