Weekly physical activity trajectories in short- and long-term survivors of childhood cancer: the PACCS and SURfit studies.
Article in Journal of cancer survivorship : research and practice, 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
purposeIdentify and describe weekly physical activity (PA) trajectories in adolescent and adult childhood cancer survivors (survivors), describe characteristics of survivors following different PA trajectories, and compare PA trajectories to controls.
methodsThis study includes adolescent (9-18 years) survivors and controls from the Physical Activity in Childhood Cancer Survivors (PACCS) study and adult (18-49 years) survivors from the survivor fitness (SURfit) study and controls from the Norwegian National Physical Activity Survey 2. Weekly trajectories of accelerometer-measured PA were identified by multivariate latent class mixed models using daily minutes of moderate-to-vigorous and light PA (MVPA, LPA). Survivors' characteristics related to different PA trajectories were assessed using a descriptive approach, and PA trajectories between survivors and controls were visually compared.
resultsWe identified four PA trajectories among adolescents (Low regular; Medium, drop weekend; Medium, peak Friday; and Medium regular) and four among adult survivors (Medium regular; Medium, drop weekend; Medium regular MVPA, high regular LPA; and High, drop weekend). The main factors related to the different PA trajectories were sex, age at assessment, sleep, and (parental) education, whereas diagnosis seemed important in adolescent survivors only. In adolescents, trajectories were comparable between survivors and controls, while in adults, only three trajectories were comparable. The allocation to the different trajectories was more favorable in adolescent survivors (fewer in the Low trajectory) and adult survivors (no Low regular MVPA trajectory was identified in survivors) compared to controls. IMPLICATIONS FOR CANCER SURVIVORS: Our findings show many different behavioral approaches to accumulate PA over a week. They highlight the need for targeted PA interventions in a subset of survivors (i.e., adolescent, female survivors of CNS tumors). Developing interventions to prevent PA drops on the weekend holds high potential.
