Self-reported sedentary time and its influencing factors among patients with knee osteoarthritis: a cross-sectional survey.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. 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
The purpose of this study was to investigate the prevalence of sedentary behavior among patients with knee osteoarthritis and its associated factors, providing a reference for developing future intervention programs to improve sedentary behaviour in this population. A total of 311 patients with knee osteoarthritis admitted to a tertiary hospital in Guizhou Province were enrolled in the study. Assessments were conducted using the following instruments: a sociodemographic questionnaire, Tampa Kinesiophobia Scale, Knee Function Scale, Social Support Scale, Fatigue Scale, Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index. Results showed that the median daily sedentary time of the total sample was 5 h (range: 4-7 h), with 140 patients (45.0%) exhibiting ≥ 6 h/day of sedentary time. Logistic regression analysis indicated that female (OR = 0.126, 95% CI 0.033-0.480, P = 0.006), live alone (OR = 0.195, 95% CI 0.042-0.944, P = 0.042), town (OR = 6.502, 95% CI 1.678-25.197, P = 0.007), city (OR=9.652, 95% CI 1.591-58.572, P=0.014), NRS≥ 4 (OR = 4.624, 95% CI 1.471-14.539, P = 0.009), social support (OR = 0.070, 95% CI 0.024-0.208, P < 0.001), anxiety (OR = 4.615, 95% CI 1.523-13.986, P = 0.007), depression (OR = 5.693, 95% CI 1.824-17.776, P = 0.003), fatigue (OR = 5.767, 95% CI 1.907-17.442, P = 0.002), KSS (OR = 0.183, 95% CI 0.045-0.743, P = 0.018), and other factors significantly increased the incidence of sedentary behaviour among patients with knee osteoarthritis. The study revealed that sedentary behaviour is substantial proportion among knee osteoarthritis patients, with extended sedentary periods. Consequently, healthcare providers should emphasize the importance of regular physical activity, employ evidence-based pain management strategies, enhance social support networks, and advise patients to promptly implement measures improving knee function while increasing their awareness of their own sedentary habits.
