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.

2 · The registry

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

introductionExcessive sedentary behaviour (SB) is highly prevalent among children and adolescents and young adults (AYAs) treated for cancer. Although SB is associated with adverse health outcomes in adults with cancer, little is known about SB in younger cancer patients and survivors. In this scoping review, we aim to summarise current literature on (1) the association between SB and clinical outcomes and (2) results of intervention trials to reduce SB, specifically in paediatric and AYA cancer patients and survivors. METHODS AND ANALYSIS: The scoping review will follow the five stages described in the Arksey and O'Malley methodology framework. We will conduct a comprehensive search in five varied electronic databases (PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, CINAHL and SportDiscus) for original articles published in peer-reviewed journals since 1 January 2000, and search reference lists of identified articles and previous review articles. All original research article types will be considered (ie, cross-sectional, cohort, interventional trials). Two reviewers will independently screen all articles based on predetermined inclusion and exclusion criteria, including (1) more than half the sample at the time of study must have been children (0-14 years old) and/or adolescent and young adults (AYAs, 15-39-year old) who were being or had been previously treated for cancer and (2) reporting of SB. Data will be extracted as a descriptive and quantitative summary of each study's key characteristics and results. Study-specific quality assessment will be performed using established tools. Results will be presented in evidence tables with an accompanying narrative summary. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: Ethics approval is not required as only publicly available data will be analysed. Results will be published in a peer-reviewed journal and may be presented at a scientific conference. REGISTRATION DETAILS: The protocol is registered in Open Science Framework (https://osf.io/ua8z9).
