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

Background: Physical activity is a key factor for maintaining health in old age. Due to the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, studies have shown that there has been a decrease in physical activity; thus, considerations are now needed on how to (re)activate older individuals. One approach is to ask which factors had a positive influence on physical activity before the pandemic and to address these through interventions. Objectives: The aim of the study is to identify important factors of physical activity in a multivariate analysis in order to show possibilities for (re)activation. Materials and methods: For this purpose, multiple logistic regression was conducted based on data from a standardized, representative telephone survey ( Results: Positive health status and motivational factors increase the chance of physical activity. The social component and the perception of physical activity as good for one's health also increases the likelihood of exercising. Sociodemographic factors, apart from income, could not be identified as significant predictors in the model. Conclusions: In order to increase the chances of (re-)activation, measures need to be taken that understand physical activity as a means to different ends for older people.
