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

Objectives: With the advancement of digital technologies, digital health-supported physical activity has attracted considerable attention for its potential to enhance cognitive function in older adults. To systematically review the research progress and trends in this field, this study utilized CiteSpace 6.3 R2 for bibliometric analysis of relevant literature. Methods: Publications were retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection and Scopus databases, and after screening and merging, a total of 201 publications were included for analysis. CiteSpace 6.3 R2 was used to conduct bibliometric analysis from dimensions such as keyword, country, and institution. Results: The annual publication counts showed an overall increasing trend, with Conclusion: Research in this field is rapidly advancing, showing a clear trend toward multidisciplinary integration. Collaboration networks have formed across regions, institutions, and authors, but remain relatively fragmented. Core journals, influential authors, and highly cited publications have collectively shaped the foundational knowledge base of the field. Recent studies have focused on integration models and collaborative mechanisms between digital health technologies and physical activity. Future research should emphasize interdisciplinary and international collaboration, prioritizing the development of personalized, real-world-oriented digital health interventions to enhance the quality of life for older adults.
