From body shaping to character formation: international research progress and mechanisms of exercise training interventions for juvenile delinquency.
Review 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
Juvenile delinquency is a global public health concern requiring effective prevention strategies. This narrative review summarizes and synthesizes international evidence on structured exercise and sport-based interventions for juvenile delinquency, examining theoretical frameworks, mechanisms, program characteristics, and effectiveness. We conducted a literature search in PubMed and Web of Science; evidence indicates that intervention effectiveness depends critically on program design and implementation quality-long-term structured programs with trained coaches produce the most robust effects. Exercise facilitates behavioral change through interconnected physiological, psychological, and social mechanisms, with integration of cognitive-behavioral therapy and family support yielding stronger outcomes than exercise alone. Structured exercise shows promise as a developmental intervention for delinquency prevention, but success requires theory-driven design, skilled mentorship, and cultural sensitivity. Future research should prioritize rigorous longitudinal designs and cultural adaptation in underrepresented regions.
