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

Background: Physical activity has been shown to improve the health of middle-aged women and prevent menopause-associated disorders. Considering advances in technology, investigating the effects of exercises, especially walking, on the health of menopausal women using a mobile application is crucial. Therefore, this study aimed to implement a 12-week walking program for menopausal women using a mobile application (WalkON) and to investigate changes in health conditions, lifestyle habits, social support and mental health, health-promoting behaviors, health beliefs, and self-efficacy. Methods: This observational study, utilizing a nonequivalent control group and pre- to post-test design, was conducted between September 9, 2024, and November 11, 2024, with the intervention group consisting of 46 participants and the control group consisting of 45 participants. SPSS software was used to analyze the data. Results: The findings revealed that, compared with those in the control group, sleep quality scores in the intervention group decreased significantly following the walking intervention, indicating that sleep quality improved in the intervention group ( Discussion: WalkONs have potential positive effects on health-promoting behaviors and mental health improvement, and could serve as an effective strategy to improve physical and mental health in women experiencing menopausal symptoms.
