Impact of digital-based online physical education on undergraduate students' physical and psycho-emotional wellbeing.
Article in Frontiers in psychology, 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
Background: The ongoing conflict in Ukraine has forced higher education institutions in frontline regions to transition to long-term remote learning, significantly increasing the risk of sedentary behavior and psychological stress among undergraduate students. Consequently, traditional physical education programs face critical organizational and pedagogical challenges within this exclusively online format. Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of a 15-week comprehensive online physical education course integrating digital platforms and interactive tools on the physical activity levels and psycho-emotional wellbeing of undergraduate students at a frontline university. Methods: A single-group pretest-posttest design was employed with 735 first-year volunteers (361 males, 374 females). The intervention utilized a multimodal approach via Zoom and Moodle, incorporating digital quizzes, social media challenges, and diverse practical modalities (e.g., Tabata, Pilates). Assessments included the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ-SF), Body Mass Index (BMI), and the "Well-being, Activity, and Mood" (WAM) questionnaire. Results: After 15 weeks, students showed a statistically significant increase in physical activity: females by 20.15 MET-min/week ( Conclusion: The integration of synchronous and asynchronous digital tools into physical education is associated with positive trends in counteracting hypodynamia and supporting mental health during periods of social isolation and conflict. This adaptive pedagogical approach could be recommended for universities and secondary educational institutions operating in distance or blended formats under crisis conditions.
