1 · What the graph read from 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.

Abstract

purposeTo explore the theoretical constructs that functioned as mediators of interventions for moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) maintenance among breast cancer survivors.

method161 survivors were randomized into 3 groups: Reach Plus, Reach Plus Message or Reach Plus Phone. All participants received a 3-month theory-based intervention delivered by volunteer coaches. During months 4-9, all participants monitored their MVPA and received feedback reports. Additionally, Reach Plus Message received weekly text/email messages and Reach Plus Phone received monthly calls from their coaches. Assessments of weekly MVPA minutes and theoretical constructs (self-efficacy, social support, physical activity [PA] enjoyment and PA barriers) were obtained at baseline, 3, 6, 9 and 12-months. ANALYSES: Using a multiple mediator analysis with a product of coefficients approach, we examined mechanisms associated with between-group differences over time in weekly MVPA minutes.

resultsSelf-efficacy mediated effects of Reach Plus Message vs. Reach Plus at 6 (ab = 16.99) and 9 M (ab = 27.45); social support mediated effects at 6 (ab = 4.86), 9 (ab = 14.30) and 12 M (ab = 6.18). Self-efficacy mediated effects of Reach Plus Phone vs. Reach Plus at 6 (ab = 18.76), 9 (ab = 28.93) and 12 M (ab = 18.18). Social support mediated effects of Reach Plus Phone vs. Reach Plus Message at 6 (ab=-5.50) and 9 M (ab=-13.20); PA enjoyment mediated effects at 12 M (ab=-3.63).

conclusionsPA maintenance efforts should focus on strengthening breast cancer survivors' self-efficacy and obtaining social support.The trial was registered at ClinicalTrials.Gov: NCT02694640 (Feb. 26, 2016).
