Physical activity measurements in individuals with interstitial lung disease: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Synthesis in European respiratory review : an official journal of the European Respiratory Society, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 3 of them syntheses 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
backgroundPhysical activity (PA) measurements are becoming common in interstitial lung disease (ILD); however, standardisation has not been achieved. We aimed to systematically review PA measurement methods, present PA levels and provide practical recommendations on PA measurement in ILD.
methodsWe searched four databases up to November 2022 for studies assessing PA in ILD. We collected information about the studies and participants, the methods used to measure PA, and the PA metrics. Studies were scored using 12 items regarding PA measurements to evaluate the reporting quality of activity monitor use.
resultsIn 40 of the included studies, PA was measured using various devices or questionnaires with numerous metrics. Of the 33 studies that utilised activity monitors, a median of five out of 12 items were not reported, with the definition of nonwear time being the most frequently omitted. The meta-analyses showed that the pooled means (95% CI) of steps, time spent in moderate to vigorous PA, total energy expenditure and sedentary time were 5215 (4640-5791) steps·day
conclusionThe use of activity monitors and questionnaires in ILD lacks consistency. Improvement is required in the reporting quality of PA measurement methods using activity monitors.
