Longitudinal Patterns of Physical Activity Among Older Adults: A Latent Transition Analysis.
Article in American journal of epidemiology, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
Most epidemiologic studies of physical activity measure either total energy expenditure or engagement in a single type of activity, such as walking. These approaches may gloss over important nuances in activity patterns. We performed a latent transition analysis to identify patterns of activity, as well as neighborhood and individual determinants of changes in those activity patterns, over 2 years in a cohort of 2,023 older adult residents of New York, New York, surveyed between 2011 and 2013. We identified 7 latent classes: 1) mostly inactive, 2) walking, 3) exercise, 4) household activities and walking, 5) household activities and exercise, 6) gardening and household activities, and 7) gardening, household activities, and exercise. The majority of subjects retained the same activity patterns between waves (54% unchanged between waves 1 and 2, 66% unchanged between waves 2 and 3). Most latent class transitions were between classes distinguished only by 1 form of activity, and only neighborhood unemployment was consistently associated with changing between activity latent classes. Future latent transition analyses of physical activity would benefit from larger cohorts and longer follow-up periods to assess predictors of and long-term impacts of changes in activity patterns.
