The Role of the Environment on Sedentary Behavior in Community-Dwelling Older Adults.
Article in Journal of housing for the elderly, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
objectivesTo compare amounts of sedentary behavior and physical activity in adults residing in planned group residential settings to those residing in private homes.
methodsThirty-one older adults who resided in planned group residential settings (n=13) and in private homes (n=18) participated. Daily activities were measured using the Sensewear Armband for 7 days. Estimates of the duration of daily activities performed across sedentary, light, and moderate-to-vigorous intensities were captured.
resultsParticipants in planned group residential settings were older (age 85.9±3.5 vs 78.3±7.2; p=0.001) and spent more time in sedentary behaviors (12.7±1.5 vs 11.3±1.6; p=0.02) than participants in private homes. The difference was attenuated slightly after controlling for age and wear time (adjusted difference 1.2±0.6 hours, p=0.06). DISCUSSION: Adults residing in planned group residential settings, which provide supportive services, were more sedentary than adults residing in private homes. The environment in which older adults live may contribute to sedentary behavior.
