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

Objective: This study aims to investigate physical activity behavior among occupational populations in China's economically developed regions, identifies associated factorsinfluencing factors, and explores its cross-sectional associations with multiple health indicatorshealth effects. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted on 6,836 employees from 64 enterprises in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangdong using 2024 Asia Best Workplace Selection Project data. Descriptive statistics, chi-square test, rank sum test and two-level logistic regression were applied to analyze activity status, influencing factors and health effects. Results: Only 37.9% of participants met sufficient activity standards. Individual factors (male gender, age ≥40 years, unmarried status, higher education, no overtime, no perceived exercise barriers) and enterprise factors (equipped fitness facilities, provided health checkups) were significantly associated with higher odds ofwere protective factors for sufficient exercise ( Conclusion: Physical activity levels of occupational populations in China's economically developed regions are relatively low, affected by individual and enterprise factors. Sufficient physical activity was associated with a lower prevalence of multiple physical and depressive and anxiety symptomsmental health problems, providing empirical support for formulating targeted occupational health promotion strategies.
