An Exploratory Analysis of Accelerometer-Measured Physical Activity and Emotional Functioning in Patients With Chronic Pain.
Article in Journal of the Academy of Consultation-Liaison Psychiatry. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
backgroundPhysical activity (PA) can benefit pain and emotional functioning for patients with chronic pain. However, associations between different intensities of PA (moderate-to-vigorous PA, light PA, and sedentary behavior), pain, and emotional functioning are not well understood in patients with chronic pain.
objectiveThe goals of this study were to (1) describe PA patterns of adult patients with chronic pain using accelerometers and (2) explore preliminary associations between PA intensities, pain, and emotional functioning.
methodsThirteen patients with chronic pain completed self-report measures of pain, cognitive and emotional reactions to pain, depression and anxiety, and wore ActiGraph accelerometers for 1 week before participating in a pilot mind-body PA intervention.
resultsSedentary behavior and light activity were strongly inversely correlated (r = -0.93, P < 0.01). Greater sedentary behavior was associated with lower pain during activity (r = -0.55, P = 0.05), and greater light activity was correlated with higher pain during activity (r = 0.63, P = 0.02) and pain at rest (r = 0.54, P = 0.06). However, greater moderate-to-vigorous PA was correlated with lower pain at rest (r = -0.66, P = 0.01), pain catastrophizing (r = -0.53, P = 0.06), depression (r = -0.44, P = 0.14), and anxiety (r = -0.57, P = 0.04).
conclusionsObjective accelerometer-measured PA has the potential to reveal differential associations between PA intensities, pain, and emotional functioning. Findings here suggest preliminary recommendations to focus on interconnections between moderate-to-vigorous PA, pain at rest, pain catastrophizing, anxiety, and depression for patients with chronic pain.
