Exploring physical activity, perceived barriers, and social media influence in Turkish physiotherapy students.
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
Low physical activity (PA) levels and sedentary behavior are major public health concerns. This study assessed PA levels, knowledge of PA guidelines, perceived barriers to exercise, and social media addiction among Turkish physiotherapy students. A cross-sectional study was conducted among 302 undergraduate physiotherapy students in Istanbul, Turkey. Data were collected through paper-based questionnaires and face-to-face interviews using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire-Short Form (IPAQ-SF), a PA knowledge assessment, the Bergen Facebook Addiction Scale (BFAS), and the exercise benefits and barriers scale. Descriptive statistics, the Mann-Whitney U test, the Kruskal-Wallis test, and Spearman correlation were used for analysis. The mean age of participants was 21.1 ± 2.6 years, with a mean BMI of 22.8 ± 4.0 kg/m
