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

purposeIndividual perceptions of one's neighborhood environment influence decisions about physical activity participation. Differences between single-family housing neighborhoods versus multi-family housing neighborhoods may affect perceptions and lead to varying responses on surveys designed to assess perceptions of the neighborhood environment for physical activity. This study tested the factorial invariance for the Physical Activity Neighborhood Environment Survey (PANES) between residents of single-family versus multi-family housing neighborhoods.

methodThis study was a secondary data analysis of PANES ratings from African American and Hispanic or Latina women (n = 324) who participated in the Health Is Power study (NCI R01CA109403), a multi-site, community-based trial to investigate the relationship between neighborhood factors and physical activity adoption and maintenance. Factorial invariance was tested using a series of nested confirmatory factor analysis models.

resultsThe final model was a 2nd-order factor structure with partial invariance of item intercepts. The 2nd-order factor structure and the relationships of the PANES items to the 1st-order factors (amenable, unsafe, and walkable) and of the 1st-order factors to the 2nd-order factor (environment) were invariant between the single-family and multi-family housing neighborhood groups.

conclusionThese findings support the construct validity of PANES, which can be considered valid for measuring neighborhood perceptions among residents of neighborhoods with different housing types.
