Public Engagement to Inform Messaging Aligning With the Muscle-Strengthening Guidelines.
Article in Clinical and public health guidelines, 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
Introduction: Physical activity guidelines and their supplementary messaging play a fundamental role in raising awareness and increasing knowledge at a population level. In the United Kingdom, there are no national-level messaging campaigns accompanying the strength component of their physical activity guidelines for public health. Perhaps unsurprisingly, then, research indicates a very low awareness of and adherence to the strength component of these guidelines. Methods: This study used the Physical Activity Messaging Framework (PAMF) during a participatory workshop to inform messaging guidance aimed to accompany the UK's Chief Medical Officers' muscle-strengthening guidelines. We focused on a subgroup of middle-aged women. Twenty adults ( Results and Discussion: Discussions revealed that it is simply not enough to tell people to do muscle-strengthening exercise (even when including information about frequency, muscle groups, or intensity) if we hope to increase self-efficacy, competence, or change behaviour.
