Objective assessment of physical activity using wearable devices in patients with mild-to-moderate Crohn's disease.
Article in Journal of the Canadian Association of Gastroenterology, 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
Background: Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is influenced by genetic and environmental factors, including diet and physical activity (PA). IBD patients who engage in more PA report improvements in quality of life, symptom management, and fatigue levels. This report aims to characterize habitual PA collected using wearable technology in patients with mild-to-moderate Crohn's disease (CD) and provide insight into the feasibility of wearable technology in IBD. Methods: This study is part of a larger multicenter, randomized controlled trial at the University of Calgary and the University of Alberta. Patients ( Results: Participants were restricted to nonstricturing, nonpenetrating, colonic or ileocolonic, mild-to-moderate CD. The average daily step count for this cohort was approximately 6700 steps, with time spent sitting (hours) averaging 8.2 ± 2.1 daily. Additionally, pooled average daily light PA and daily MVPA measured 60.0 ± 32.4 and 18.5 ± 13.0 minutes, respectively. Future Directions: Studies detailing objective assessment of daily PA using wearable technology in IBD are limited. These gaps in the literature provide future direction for researchers to investigate current PA trends and barriers to PA uptake.
