Longitudinal reciprocal associations between physical exercise and aggressive behavior in adolescents: a cross-lagged analysis.
Article in Frontiers in public health, 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
Objective: To examine the longitudinal reciprocal association between physical exercise and aggressive behavior among adolescents using a cross-lagged research design. Methods: A longitudinal study was conducted over 1 year at three time points (T1, T2, T3) involving 1,215 junior and senior high school students, using the Physical Activity Level Scale and the Aggression Behavior Scale. Results: Physical exercise among adolescents showed significant gender differences ( Conclusion: This study reveals stable gender differences in both physical exercise and aggressive behavior among adolescents, and a bidirectional longitudinal association between the two, rather than a unidirectional one. Specifically, higher levels of physical exercise are associated with lower levels of aggressive behavior, and higher levels of aggressive behavior are associated with lower levels of physical exercise participation over time. Universal intervention strategies that address the reciprocal association between physical exercise and aggressive behavior may serve as a reference for adolescents across different genders and developmental stages.
