Validating the Longitudinal Assessment of Sedentary Behavior in a Randomized Controlled Trial via a Deep Learning Algorithm.
Article in Journal for the measurement of physical behaviour, 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
Background: Sedentary behavior (SB) is a risk factor for cardiometabolic disease. Existing cut-points of hip-worn accelerometers to quantify SB underestimate sedentary bout durations by ignoring posture. To address this, we previously developed CHAP, Convolutional Neural Network Hip Accelerometer Posture, a deep learning algorithm that predicts sitting and breaks from sitting. In this study, we applied CHAP to a randomized controlled trial to externally validate its accuracy for classifying sitting versus non-sitting and estimating intervention-related changes in SB. Methods: CHAP was applied to 30Hz-tri-axial hip-worn ActiGraph-GT3X+ (AG) accelerometer data from free-living postmenopausal women who are overweight (≥55-yrs) in the Rise for Health RCT(n=406). CHAP-predicted SB accuracy (e.g., sensitivity) and daily pattern metrics (e.g., total sedentary time) were compared to a ground-truth device activPAL (AP) and standard cut-point method (AG100), at two timepoints for intervention arms-Healthy Living (control), Reduce Sitting, and Increase Transitions. Results: CHAP's SB accuracy metrics were above 84.8%. Mean (SE, p) intervention effect estimates (mean change, intervention minus controls) from generalized estimating equation models for (I) total sedentary time were AP 65.1 min/day (16.2, p<0.001), CHAP 38.2 min/day (15.4, p=0.013), and AG100 0.28 min/day (13.9, p=0.98) (Reduce Sitting); (II) breaks from SB were AP 22/day (4.3, p<0.001), CHAP 4/day (1.5, p=0.003), and AG100 <1/day (2.1, p=0.860) (Increase Transitions). Conclusions: This study validated CHAP on an independent cohort. CHAP exhibited high prediction accuracy, and although less sensitive than AP, CHAP detected changes in SB more effectively than AG100. Thus, CHAP could make a strong contribution to SB intervention research.
