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.

2 · The registry

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

purposeLive-remote exercise interventions, supervised by exercise professionals in a home-based setting, could potentially enhance exercise accessibility for cancer survivors, yet research on their perspectives is limited. This study explored cancer survivors' experience of exercise within the context of a live-remote exercise intervention, to understand factors influencing exercise engagement.

methodsFour online focus groups with, in total, 22 breast, prostate, and colorectal cancer survivors were conducted between March and June 2023. These individuals had participated in a 12-week live-remote exercise intervention. The semi-structured discussions were transcribed verbatim and analysed using reflexive thematic analysis with an abductive approach. The Capability, Opportunity, Motivation model of Behaviour (COM-B) served as a supportive framework.

resultsNine themes were identified and mapped onto COM-B domains (capability, opportunity, motivation). Factors influencing cancer survivors' exercise engagement included exercise readiness following cancer treatment, bringing exercise closer, in capable hands, peer support through shared experience, life factors as hurdles or support, exercise as an integral component of cancer treatment, caring for myself and others after me, the positive impact of exercise exceeding expectations, and getting into the habit.

conclusionsIdentifying factors shaping exercise engagement, these findings emphasise live-remote's potential benefit in overcoming barriers and fostering participation. Supervised by professionals, it offered psychosocial and exercise support, facilitating the integration of exercise into daily life. IMPLICATIONS FOR CANCER SURVIVORS: Elucidating key factors for exercise engagement within a live-remote context is essential for developing and implementing live-remote exercise interventions to ensure accessible, integrated exercise for optimal post-treatment well-being for cancer survivors.
