Combined effects of physical activity and diabetes medications on glycemic control: a real-world data study.
Article in Scientific reports, 2026. 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
Monitoring and modeling population health is essential for understanding the impact of lifestyle behaviors and pharmacologic therapies on chronic disease management. In this study, we used a nationwide Japanese health insurance claims and health checkup database to investigate the associations between physical activity and glycemic control among 24,830 treatment-naïve adults with type 2 diabetes receiving DPP-4 inhibitors, SGLT2 inhibitors, or metformin. The odds of achieving hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) < 6.5% at follow-up were assessed according to physical activity status, determined using standardized questionnaires. In this real-world population, physically active individuals had higher odds of achieving glycemic control than sedentary individuals among those treated with DPP-4 inhibitors or SGLT2 inhibitors, whereas no statistically significant association was observed among those treated with metformin. These findings support the potential value of integrating physical activity with pharmacologic therapy in type 2 diabetes management in real-world clinical settings.
