Baseline Comparison of Exercisers and Nonexercisers With Spinal Cord Injury Enrolled in a Group Tele-Exercise Program.

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
Background: Individuals with SCI are 1.5 times more likely to be sedentary compared to adults without disabilities or chronic health conditions. It is therefore imperative to develop and evaluate innovative facilitation strategies for physical activity behavior in this population. Objectives: As an insightful step to creating and evaluating tailored physical activity interventions for individuals with SCI, we evaluated demographic, psychosocial, and physical characteristics of those who choose to engage in physical activity by enrolling in a group exercise study. Design/Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional analysis detailing demographic features and baseline outcomes of those with SCI enrolled in a group tele-exercise study who were classified as regular exercisers versus nonregular exercisers per the American College of Sports Medicine exercise guidelines. Between-group differences for psychosocial and physical outcomes were assessed with chi-square and Mann-Whitney Results: Twenty-seven adult volunteers enrolled in the study (exercisers = 14, nonexercisers = 13). Groups were comparable for biological sex, gender identity, self-reported racial group(s), and current age. Exercisers demonstrated significantly shorter duration of injury compared to nonexercisers ( Conclusion: Nonexercisers with SCI demonstrate increased injury duration and reduced exercise self-efficacy compared to active peers. These factors should be addressed in the design and delivery of SCI-specific physical activity interventions to increase the likelihood of this critical health behavior over time.
