Occupational Physical Activity and Blood Pressure: The Role of Leisure Time Physical Activity and Sex Differences.

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
backgroundThis study examined the association between occupational physical activity (OPA) and blood pressure (BP), with particular emphasis on sex differences and the moderating role of leisure-time physical activity (LTPA). Elucidating these relationships may support the development of tailored BP management strategies within occupational health contexts.
methodsA total of 3,909 adults from the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey were included in the analysis. Propensity score matching was employed to balance covariates between groups. Linear regression analyses were conducted to examine interactions between OPA and both systolic and diastolic BP, accounting for sex differences and LTPA levels.
resultsAmong males with insufficient LTPA, OPA was significantly associated with higher systolic BP (β = 1.944,
conclusionThe findings reveal sex-specific associations between OPA and BP. In males, OPA was linked to elevated systolic BP in the absence of sufficient LTPA, whereas in females, OPA was associated with lower systolic BP irrespective of LTPA levels. These results suggest a potential protective effect of OPA on systolic BP in females and underscore the need to consider sex, OPA, and LTPA collectively when developing BP management strategies.
