Research priorities for physical activity and exercise management of people with knee and hip osteoarthritis: A multi-stage international priority-setting study from the OARSI Rehabilitation Discussion Group.
Article in Osteoarthritis and cartilage, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
objectiveTo identify research priorities for physical activity and exercise management of knee and hip osteoarthritis (OA).
designWe used a multi-stage process involving an international multi-disciplinary panel of 276 experts (150 consumers, 69 clinicians spanning 5 disciplines, 54 researchers, and 3 funder/consumer organisation representatives) from 26 countries. The process included: 1) compiling a list of unanswered research questions from existing research; 2) assembling the panel and generating additional questions from members via an online survey; 3) consolidating research questions (eg. removing duplicates); 4) scoring questions for priority by the panel on an 11-point numeric rating scale (0='not a priority at all; 10='highest priority') via another online survey; and 5) ranking the top 20 priority questions by the panel via an online discrete choice experiment (1000Minds).
resultsA list of 61 research questions was compiled from the literature and the panel generated an additional 346 questions. Following consolidation, 178 questions remained and were scored by 150 of the original panelists (54%), with mean priority scores from 5.0 to 8.4. 153 (55%) panelists completed the discrete choice experiment. The top three research priorities were: 1) investigating the impact of physical activity and exercise on delaying/avoiding joint replacement, 2) developing effective interventions to promote long-term exercise adherence, and 3) stratifying people to the most appropriate form of exercise support.
conclusionWe identified research priorities about physical activity and exercise management of knee and hip OA. These will guide the international research agenda with the aim of improving outcomes for people with OA.
