Impaired physical fitness in pediatric inflammatory bowel disease.
Article in Journal of pediatric gastroenterology and nutrition, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
objectiveThere are only a few studies on physical fitness in pediatric inflammatory bowel disease (PIBD). We compared physical fitness in PIBD patients versus healthy controls and analyzed the role of contributing disease- and patient-related factors.
methodsThis cross-sectional study included 73 patients with PIBD aged 13.0 (2.8) (mean [standard deviation]) years from two Finnish university hospitals, 31 with Crohn's disease and 42 with ulcerative or unclassified colitis, and 74 age- and sex-matched controls. Cardiorespiratory and neuromuscular fitness were assessed, physical activity (PA) was measured, and disease characteristics concerning physical fitness were analyzed.
resultsCardiorespiratory fitness, that is, maximal workload (W DISCUSSION: Patients with PIBD had lower physical fitness than age- and sex-matched controls. The causes of lower physical fitness in PIBD are likely complex, warranting the need for longitudinal studies examining the associations of factors like body composition, visceral fat, and control of disease severity with physical fitness.
