Accelerometer-measured moderate-to-vigorous physical activity is associated with reduced risk of bowel resection and mortality in inflammatory bowel disease: a prospective cohort study.

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
backgroundThere is limited consensus on physical activity recommendations for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients due to insufficient high-quality evidence.
methodsWe collected data from 1303 UK Biobank participants with IBD diagnosis and device-measured physical activity. Moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) was classified based on data measured by wrist-worn accelerometers over a 7-day period. MVPA patterns were defined as inactive, active weekend warrior, and regularly active.
resultsDuring a median follow-up of 7.8 years, 56 incident bowel resection cases and 86 deaths were documented. Compared to those in the lowest tertile, participants in the highest tertile of MVPA duration had lower risks of bowel resection [hazard ratio (HR), 0.44; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.22-0.86] and mortality (HR, 0.49; 95% CI, 0.27-0.89). MVPA duration showed a linear association with bowel resection, while its dose-response relationship with mortality plateaued at approximately 58 minutes/day. The active weekend warrior pattern was inversely associated with bowel resection (HR, 0.28; 95% CI, 0.12-0.65), and the regularly active pattern was inversely associated with both bowel resection (HR, 0.37; 95% CI, 0.19-0.69) and mortality (HR, 0.53; 95% CI, 0.31-0.91) compared to the inactive group. The findings remained consistent after individually adjusting for C-reactive protein, Charlson Comorbidity Index, disease severity, baseline disease activity status, use of IBD-related medications, and baseline bowel resection history.
conclusionLonger durations of accelerometer-measured MVPA were associated with reduced bowel resection risk and mortality. For affected individuals, the regularly active pattern may be the optimal choice, although the active weekend warrior pattern still provides health benefits compared to being inactive.
