Characteristics of intensity-based physical activity according to gait ability in people hospitalized with subacute stroke: a cross-sectional study.
Article in Physical therapy research, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
objectiveGait ability may be related to the level of intensity-based physical activity in people who have experienced a stroke; however, this relationship has not been explored in previous studies. This study aimed to investigate the characteristics of intensity-based physical activity according to gait ability and to explore the factors related to different intensity physical activity.
methodEighty hospitalized participants with subacute stroke were assigned to three groups based on their gait ability: group 1 (n = 28) could walk independently with a maximal gait speed (MGS) of more than 0.9 m/s; group 2 (n = 11) could walk independently with a MGS of less than 0.9 m/s; group 3 (n = 41) could not walk independently. Light-intensity physical activity (LIPA) and moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) were measured for 12 hours using an accelerometer (OMRON, HJA350-IT) for 7 consecutive days and were calculated throughout three time periods (daytime, non-therapy time, or therapy time).
resultsIn each time period, a two-way ANOVA showed an interaction between the groups and intensity-based physical activity (p < 0.05). Bonferroni post hoc test showed a significantly higher LIPA in groups 1 and 2 compared with group 3 in daytime or non-therapy time. In contrast, group 1 showed a significantly higher MVPA compared with group 2 and 3 for each time period.
conclusionDuring daytime and non-therapy time, the results suggested that gait independence is related to LIPA rather than gait speed, and gait speed and gait independence is related to MVPA.
