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.

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.

Abstract

objectiveThe purpose of this study was to describe activity patterns in adults with knee osteoarthritis (OA) and to examine the relation of patterns with incident slow gait speed over 4 years.

designUsing data from the Osteoarthritis Initiative, we included adults with or at high risk of knee OA who walked > 1.0 m/s during a 20-meter walk at baseline, i.e., did not have slow gait speed. To determine activity patterns, we reduced the dimensions of accelerometer data (ActiGraph GTM1) using a multidimensional Multilevel Functional Principal Components Analysis to calculate between-subject principal component (PC) scores. We estimated the association of the top and bottom tertiles' PC scores with incident slow gait speed over 4 years (risk ratios with 95% confidence intervals) referenced to the middle tertile, adjusting for potential confounders.

resultsWe identified four activity patterns (PCs): 1) high activity, 2) high evening activity, 3) high morning and evening activity, and 4) very high morning activity. Those whose daily activity patterns best matched with the pattern PC2 or PC4, were found to have 0.60 [0.37, 0.96] and 0.39 [0.22, 0.71] times the risk of developing slow gait speed, respectively; while those whose daily activity patterns least matched PC3, were found to have 1.77 [1.19, 2.62] times the risk.

conclusionsDaily activity patterns may be related to the development of slow gait speed in adults with or at risk for knee OA.
