Physical Activity Barriers, Facilitators, and Preferences in Rural Adults with Obesity.
Article in Current cardiovascular risk reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Purpose of Review: To identify physical activity-related barriers, facilitators, and preferences among adults with obesity living in rural areas, a scoping review was conducted. Recent Findings: Ten studies conducted in the United States, Australia, Nepal, and Mexico were included. The barriers reported most often were social/physical environment concerns (e.g., lack of resources/social support), as well as finding time. The one study comparing barriers across obesity classes I-III found minimal differences. Th most frequently reported facilitators included fitness trackers and social interaction/being part of a group. In the only study reporting intervention preferences, residents of rural areas preferred web-based delivery, whereas individuals with obesity favored face-to-face delivery. Summary: When developing physical activity interventions, it is important to consider environmental and psychosocial factors that can hinder or facilitate engagement among rural adults with obesity. More research on preferences is needed to inform future interventions.
