The active cohort: a population-based smartphone intervention for health outcomes.
Article in Journal of public health (Oxford, England), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundThe Clalit Active Cohort Study (CACS) assess the impact of lifestyle factors, particularly physical activity, on short- and long-term health outcomes using real-world data. Launched in January 2021, CACS focuses on Clalit Health Services members with supplemental health insurance who use the Clalit Active smartphone app.
methodsThe study integrates data from the Clalit Active app with electronic health records from CHS, covering primary and secondary care, hospitalizations, medications, laboratory results, and imaging. The cohort currently includes 622 584 participants and continues to grow.
resultsThe app monitors various health-related behaviors, including physical activity and sleep. Preliminary findings show significant variations in daily step counts based on sociodemographic and clinical factors. Substantial differences were found between app users and non-users app users and non-users. On average, males recorded higher daily step counts compared to females, and individuals under the age of 40 demonstrated greater activity levels than older participants. Participants with pre-existing comorbidities demonstrated lower activity levels.
conclusionsCACS is a powerful resource for researchers and policymakers, providing insights into the relationship between lifestyle factors and health outcomes within a diverse population. Findings can inform public health policies and guide the lifestyle interventions, highlighting the potential of integrating smartphone data with electronic health records to improve health outcomes.
