Relationship between self-efficacy, beliefs, and physical activity in inflammatory arthritis.
Article in Hong Kong physiotherapy journal : official publication of the Hong Kong Physiotherapy Association Limited = Wu li chih liao, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundThe benefits of physical activity (PA) in inflammatory arthritis (IA) patients are well-established. However, levels of PA in the IA population are suboptimal and the psychological determinants of PA are poorly understood.
objectiveThe study aimed to examine the self-reported PA levels and psychological determinants of PA for the IA population.
methodsA cross-sectional study of people with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and psoriatic arthritis (PsA) was conducted to explore the association between demographic and psychological variables such as self-efficacy and belief about PA, and levels of PA and energy expenditure (EE). PA was recorded using the Yale Physical Activity Survey (YPAS).
resultsA total of 102 participants were included in the study. Participants reported low levels of PA [mean ± standard deviation (SD), 24.3 ± 18.2]. Beliefs about PA, but not self-efficacy, correlated with levels of self-report PA over the past week (r = 0.25,
conclusionPeople with IA have decreased levels of PA. Beliefs about PA are associated with levels of self-report PA and EE in this population. These data provide a useful signpost for guiding and designing interventions to improve PA levels in IA populations by altering beliefs about PA.
