Associations between physical activity and prenatal depression and anxiety symptoms: a cross-sectional 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
Prenatal depression and anxiety pose a significant threat to maternal and neonatal health. Although physical activity (PA) improves mental wellbeing, its effects across pregnancy stages and relationship with sedentary behavior (SB) are not well understood. This study examined the relationships between PA, SB, and prenatal depression and anxiety, investigating differences throughout gestational stages. In this cross-sectional study, 501 pregnant women aged 18-45 completed the International Physical Activity Questionnaire - Short Form (IPAQ-SF), the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CES-D), and the Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7). Pearson correlations, linear regression, decision tree analysis, and one-way ANOVA were used to analyze associations and group differences. PA was inversely correlated with depression (
