Association between continuous device-based physical activity monitoring over six months and cardiorespiratory, metabolic and body composition outcomes in post-surgery cancer survivors - An observational cohort analysis within a randomized controlled trial (CRBP-TS Study).

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
backgroundThe current guidelines for physical activity often rely on self-reported data or short-term activity tracking. We aimed to explore device-based long-term physical activity tracking and its possible association with cancer survivors' cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF), metabolic health, and body composition.
methodsIn this observational analysis of a randomized controlled trial (CRBP-TS study), we reanalyzed data from 111 patients with breast, prostate, and colorectal cancer. Dependent variables included cardiorespiratory outcomes, body composition, metabolic biomarkers, and fatigue. A multiple linear regression model was used to analyze the data, considering age, gender, BMI, and baseline values. A consumer wearable device measured moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) and steps continuously over six months, ensuring a detailed and accurate record of the participants' daily physical activity.
resultsPhysical activity data from all participants indicated a mean of moderate physical activity 108 min/wk (SD ± 88), vigorous physical activity 41 min/wk (SD ± 36), and 8498 steps/day (SD ± 2490). We observed that higher levels of MVPA were significantly associated with higher maximum oxygen uptake (VO
conclusionsContinuous activity tracking with wearable devices provides an objective and standardized opportunity to investigate the amount of aerobic physical activity and its association with systemic health outcomes in cancer survivors. Our long-term activity data support a positive relationship between aerobic physical activity and cardiorespiratory fitness as well as metabolic health.
