Physical activity pattern and its influencing factors among patients with inflammatory bowel disease in East China.
Article in BMJ open, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
objectiveTo investigate the current level of physical activity (PA) and its influencing factors among patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) in East China.
designCross-sectional study.
settingQuestionnaire survey recruiting from six tertiary referral hospitals in East China between October and December 2023.
participantsPatients with Crohn's disease (CD) or ulcerative colitis (UC) aged 18-65 years without conditions limiting PA engagement. PRIMARY AND SECONDARY OUTCOME MEASURES: Primary outcomes comprised total PA, PA levels and sedentary time over 1 week. Demographic and clinical characteristics, disease-related and non-disease-related barriers to PA, and PA outcome expectation score were also assessed.
resultsOf 391 eligible respondents, including 271 CD (69.3%) and 237 males (60.6%), the median total PA in IBD patients was 594 (0-1695) metabolic equivalent of task (MET)-min/week, with 53 patients (13.6%) of high, 140 (35.8%) of moderate and 198 (50.6%) of low level. The median sedentary time was 2325 (1500~3120) min/week in IBD patients, with CD significantly more than UC (p<0.01). A total of 180 IBD patients (46.0%) had reduced total PA after diagnosis, 134 (49.4%) in CD and 46 (38.3%) in UC (CD vs UC, p<0.05). Multifactorial logistic regression analysis showed that gender (OR=1.704, 95% CI 1.132 to 2.565, p=0.011) and PA outcome expectation score (OR=1.176, 95% CI 1.090 to 1.270, p<0.01) were independent influencing factors of PA levels in patients with IBD.
conclusionIn East China, total PA and proportion of moderate- to high-level PA in IBD patients was considerably low. Compared with UC, CD patients had longer sedentary time and more postdiagnostic PA reduction. Gender and PA outcome expectation scores were independent influencing factors on PA levels in IBD patients. These results pointed to potential patient populations for future-focused interventions.
