Habitual physical activity and sedentary behavior among women with and without premenopausal bilateral oophorectomy: an exploratory study.

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 explore potential differences in physical activity and sedentary behavior volumes and patterns among postmenopausal women with and without premenopausal bilateral oophorectomy (PBO).
methodsWomen with a history of PBO (n = 50) and age-matched postmenopausal referent women (n = 50) were recruited. Participants wore accelerometers on both ankles for 7 days. Volume metrics of sedentary behavior and physical activity, such as step counts, active time, and sedentary time, as well as the sedentary behavior and habitual physical activity distribution, and accumulation patterns, were quantified from the accelerometer data and compared between groups.
resultsMetrics indicating volume of sedentary behavior and physical activity were not statistically different between groups. PBO was significantly associated with higher variability in stepping bout time ( P = 0.022), indicating a potentially more complex walking pattern. In addition, PBO was significantly associated with lower variability in sedentary break time ( P = 0.012), and lower activity time Gini index ( Z = -2.428, P = 0.015). This suggests that women with PBO may have broken up their sedentary time with shorter and less variable activity bouts, and because they had relatively shorter average daily active time, they might be at a higher risk of subsequent adverse health outcomes such as low bone mineral density.
conclusionsAlthough there were no differences in overall activity volume, some differences in activity patterns emerged between women with PBO and referent women. The study highlights the need for longitudinal research to understand how physical activity and sedentary behavior patterns evolve in postmenopausal women with a history of PBO.
