Estimation of the burden of disease averted by leisure center membership across Spain.
Article in Frontiers in sports and active living, 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
Introduction: Active behavior performed in leisure centers might help reduce the negative health impacts associated with physical inactivity. The disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) is a valuation technique to quantify lifetime disease burden including both non-fatal health consequences of diseases and premature death. Method: This study estimated the role of the largest leisure center in Spain (GO fit) in averting the burden of five diseases and premature deaths during 2017 as a consequence of the physical activity and exercise programs and services delivered. A preferred model was implemented with a static picture of the burden of disease, without including discounting rate and age-weights. Sensitivity analyses were conducted considering these two variables. Results: The estimation was that GO fit services could have averted a total of 1,165.74 DALYs (10.96 DALYs per 1,000 members) coming from type 2 diabetes (22.62 DALYs), colorectal cancer (81.16 DALYs), breast cancer (48.72 DALYs), stroke (206.15 DALYs), and coronary heart disease (807.10 DALYs). Discussion: These results indicate that programs and services delivered in physical activity leisure centers could help the public health agenda aim of promoting a more active lifestyle and reducing the burden of disease associated with physical inactivity.
