The effect of COVID-19 pandemic on lifestyle-related behaviours in Turkey: A web-based cross-sectional study.
Article in International journal of nursing practice, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
backgroundThe COVID-19 pandemic and restrictions imposed to eradicate it have affected healthy lifestyle-related behaviours.
aimThe aim of this study was to determine the effect of COVID-19 on lifestyle-related behaviours.
methodsThis cross-sectional web-based survey research was performed with a convenience sample of 1020 adults residing in Turkey. Data were collected with self-report data collection tools on 8-28 April 2021: a sociodemographic characteristics form and the impact of COVID-19 on lifestyle-related behaviours questionnaire.
resultsEating behaviours, physical activity and sleep patterns of the participants were negatively affected during COVID-19 pandemic (p < 0.001). More than half of the participants experienced weight gain during the pandemic. Also, stress levels and smoking increased (p < 0.01). The participants reported having changes in their lifestyles most frequently due to the fear of COVID-19 infection, stress, decreased motivation, closure of the facilities for social and sports activities and increased food prices. Predictors of lifestyle-related behaviours were found to be education (β = .189), income (β = -.101), residing in a village (β = .113) and the presence of a chronic disease (β = .075) (p < 0.001).
conclusionsDuring the pandemic, COVID-19-related restrictions should be applied whilst taking account of both social distancing measures and maintenance of healthy lifestyle-related behaviours. Nurses should offer counselling for maintenance of healthy lifestyle-related behaviours.
