Stages of change in leisure-domain physical activity behavior and its influencing factors among Chinese college students.
Article in BMC public health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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 the distribution and influencing factors of the change stages of leisure-time physical activity behavior of college students and provide theoretical support for improving the physical and mental health level of college students.
methodsA stratified, clustered, and staged sampling method was employed to survey and measure the Body morphology of 49,717 college students in China, including sociodemographic information, leisure-time physical activity behavior, health behavior, and health status indicators.
resultsA total of 41,620 valid questionnaires were collected, with 17,212 males (41.4%) and 24,408 females (58.6%). Among the university students, 52.3% are in the pre-contemplation stage of change regarding Leisure-time physical activity behaviour, but only 6.4% are in the maintenance stage. Factors such as gender, year of study, ethnicity, the region of the university, sleep quality, BMI, and anxiety levels significantly influence the stages of change in leisure-time physical activity behaviour among university students.
conclusionThe intention of college students to engage in regular leisure-time physical activity behavior in China is weak, and numerous factors affect the change stage of leisure physical activity behavior of college students.
