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

Objective: To examine the validity of the International Physical Activity Questionnaire short form (IPAQ-SF) against an objective method for assessing physical activity (PA) in Japanese adults with type 1 diabetes (T1D). Methods: This cross-sectional study included 126 adults with T1D (aged 20-74 years). The participants wore a triaxial accelerometer for 7 consecutive days and completed the IPAQ-SF (a recall survey for the last 7 days) on the day following the 7-day accelerometer period. This ensured alignment between the periods assessed by both the methods. Results: A total of 112 participants were analyzed. The IPAQ-SF group had lower daily time in sedentary behavior (SB), total moderate-intensity PA (MPA) (including walking), vigorous-intensity PA (VPA), total PA (including walking), and daily metabolic equivalent (MET)-min in total PA than those in the accelerometer group. Significant correlations were observed between the methods for all variables: daily time in SB, total MPA, VPA, total PA, and daily MET-min in total PA ( Conclusion: These results indicate that the IPAQ-SF scores have a weak correlation with each type of accelerometer-measured PA, while the IPAQ-SF may underestimate each type of PA compared to an accelerometer in Japanese adults with T1D. Supplementary Information: The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s13340-024-00759-w.
