The association of subjective vision with objectively measured intensity-specific physical activity and bout-specific sedentary behavior among community-dwelling older adults in Japan.
Article in Japanese journal of ophthalmology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 2 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
purposeVisual impairment is a possible cause of physical frailty. Reduced physical activity (PA) may be involved in the pathway from visual impairment to physical frailty, although the association between vision and objectively measured PA among older adults remains unclear. This study examined the sex-specific association of subjective vision with intensity-specific PA and bout-specific sedentary behavior (SB) among community-dwelling, older Japanese adults. STUDY
designCross-sectional study
methodsThis study used data from the Neuron to Environmental Impact across Generations study analyzing older adults (527 participants, aged 65-84 years) living in rural areas of Niigata Prefecture, Japan. Subjective vision was assessed by use of a questionnaire. Intensity-specific PA (light-intensity PA and moderate-to-vigorous PA [MVPA]), bout-specific SB, and daily step count were objectively evaluated by use of an accelerometer. The association of subjective vison with PA and SB, stratified by sex, was analyzed by means of general regression analyses, with adjustment for covariates.
resultsThe data of 512 participants (men: 46.9%; with poor subjective vision: 22.9%) were analyzed. Poor subjective vision was significantly associated with log MVPA (partial regression coefficient = -0.261, P = .013) and log steps (partial regression coefficient = -0.164; P = .021) among women, whereas a tendency of an association was observed with prolonged SB time among men (partial regression coefficient: 39.1; P = .073).
conclusionOlder Japanese women with poor subjective vision performed less MVPA and had fewer step counts than those of participants with good subjective vision, and men with poor subjective vision had longer prolonged SB, which may all accelerate the process to physical frailty.
