1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Wrist accelerometers are widely used in clinical trials for continuous assessment of participants' day-to-day physical activity and function, through derivation of metrics such as time spent in sedentary, non-sedentary, light, and moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA). Multiple algorithms have been proposed to derive these physical activity endpoints; however, the agreement across the endpoints derived from these algorithms has not been thoroughly explored. In this work, we leverage a publicly available dataset, CAPTURE-24, including wrist accelerometer data and experts' annotations of various physical activities for 151 healthy adults, monitored at-home for one day, to compare three literature algorithms: Algorithm #1, SciKit Digital Health (SKDH), from Adamowicz et al., Algorithm #2 from Staudenmayer et al., and Algorithm #3 from Montoye et al. Algorithms' outputs were assessed against experts' annotations via paired
