Associations of different combinations of moderate-vigorous physical activity and muscle-strengthening activity with mortality among US lung cancer survivors.
Article in BMC pulmonary medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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
backgroundTo investigate the associations of different combinations of moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA) and muscle strengthening activity (MSA) with all-cause and cancer mortality among lung cancer survivors.
methodsThis nationwide prospective cohort study used data from the US National Health Interview Survey 2009-2018. A total of 785 lung cancer survivors were included in the study. Participants were linked to the National Death Index through December 31, 2019. Self-reported MVPA and MSA frequency data were used to obtain 4 mutually exclusive exposure categories. Multivariate Cox proportional hazard models were applied to explore the association between exposure categories and outcomes.
resultsThe mean (standard deviation [SD]) age of the study population was 69.1 (11.3) years and 429 (54.6%) were female. Among them, 641 (81.7%) were White and 102 (13.0%) were Black. The median follow-up time was 3 years (2526 person-years), and 349 (44.5%) all-cause deaths and 232 (29.6%) cancer deaths occurred. Compared to the MVPA < 60 min/week and MSA < 2 sessions/week group, individuals in the MVPA ≥ 60 min/week and MSA < 2 sessions/week group showed hazard ratios (HRs) of 0.50 (95% CI, 0.36-0.69) for all-cause mortality and 0.37 (95% CI, 0.20-0.67) for cancer mortality after the adjustment of covariates. Those in the MVPA ≥ 60 min/week and MSA ≥ 2 sessions/week group exhibited HRs of 0.52 (95% CI, 0.35-0.77) for all-cause mortality and 0.27 (95% CI, 0.12-0.62) for cancer mortality when compared to the MVPA < 60 min/week and MSA < 2 sessions/week group. We also identified distinct non-linear relationships between MVPA and outcomes risk among two MSA frequency subgroups.
conclusionThis cohort study demonstrated that higher levels of MVPA and MSA combined might be associated with optimal reductions of mortality risk in lung cancer survivors.
