Association between COVID-19 infection experience and physical activity levels in post-recovery college students.
Article in Frontiers in public health, 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
Objective: This study aimed to assess the level of physical activity in college students after recovery from coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Methods: The Physical Activity Rating Scale (PARS-3) and the Wisconsin Upper Respiratory Symptom Survey (WURSS-21) questionnaire were used to conduct a survey on 1,633 college students. Results: (1) The experience of COVID-19 was negatively correlated with the level of physical activity after recovery ( Conclusion: The experience of COVID-19 was associated with lower levels of physical activity among Chinese college students in the post-recovery phase, with a stronger negative correlation observed in male students. Notably, the duration and frequency of physical activity were higher among female students after recovery from COVID-19. These results are consistent with the importance of physical activity awareness during a pandemic, though causal inferences are precluded by the cross-sectional design. Additionally, the development of efficient fitness programs may be considered to support participation and address post-pandemic health needs.
