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

The objective of this study is to scientifically organize research on the impacts of short active breaks on employees' physical and mental health, with the aim of proposing a model adapted to the Brazilian work environment. The narrative analysis is structured around five main themes: (1) types of exercises recommended in the workplace context; (2) evidence of cholesterol reduction and physiological benefits; (3) differentiation by age group and biotype; (4) effects on stress and mental health; and (5) additional benefits associated with outdoor physical activity. Clinical trials and longitudinal studies published between 2010 and 2024 were analyzed. Active breaks proved effective in lowering LDL, improving HDL, and controlling stress (
