Activity levels during lifestyle physical activity and exercise physical activity: An observational study.
Article in The British journal of occupational therapy, 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: Lifestyle physical activity has shown potential health benefits, but the comparability between lifestyle and exercise physical activity is not well studied. We determined the differences in objective activity levels quantified by vector magnitude (VM3) among instrumental activities of daily living and walking exercise in healthy young adults between the ages of 18-39. Method: In this cross-sectional, observational study with repeated measures, participants completed bed-making, vacuuming, dishwashing, and walking while wearing ActiGraph GT9X Links. Results: Twenty-four females and twenty-four males participated in the study. Bed-making showed the highest VM3 counts, measured at wrists; whereas walking showed the highest VM3 counts, measured at hips. VM3 counts during bed-making were significantly higher than all other activities measured at wrists ( Conclusion: The highest activity levels measured among wrists and hips during lifestyle physical activity are similar to or higher than those of exercise physical activity among healthy young adults. Clinicians should consider multiple factors when selecting appropriate lifestyle physical activity for each individual in addition to the compendium of physical activities.
