Correlates of sedentary behaviors among adults from eastern Poland.
Article in Frontiers in public health, 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
Background: Research on sedentary behaviors in the Polish population using objective methods, such as accelerometry, remains limited. These behaviors, defined as time spent on passive activities or minimal physical effort, require further investigation. This study aimed to identify socio-demographic and health-related correlates of sedentary behaviors in a cohort of adults from eastern Poland. Methods: A total of 173 adults from eastern Poland participated in the study. Socio-demographic data were collected using the EHIS (wave 3) questionnaire. Movement behaviors were monitored for 7 days using a triaxial accelerometer. Statistical analyses focused on the prevalence of sedentary behaviors (SB) and correlations for qualitative and quantitative variables for two- and multiple-group comparisons. The final stage involved regression models explaining SB and step count per day. Results: Participants spent an average of 8 h and 34 min per day in sedentary behaviors, with a mean daily step count exceeding 8,000. Self-rated health, gender, employment status, and marital status were the strongest correlates of sedentary behavior. Linear regression analysis showed that in the case of step count per day, employment status is a statistically significant predictor explaining 11.8% of the variance. Conclusion: The obtained findings underscore the necessity for further research to explore the causal relationships of the prevalence of sedentary behaviors, particularly among socially and professionally excluded individuals.
