Latent Physical Activity Patterns and Their Related Factors in Breast Cancer Patients During Chemotherapy Intervals.
Article in Patient preference and adherence, 2026. 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
Objective: Previous research on breast cancer patients has primarily examined singular behavioral indicators, often overlooking the coexistence and interaction between physical activity and sedentary behavior-particularly screen-based sedentary time. This study aims to identify the latent activity pattern categories among breast cancer patients during chemotherapy intervals and explore their associated factors to inform targeted behavioral interventions. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted with 292 breast cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy intervals at four general hospitals in Foshan, Guangdong Province. Latent Profile Analysis (LPA) was applied as a person-centered analytic approach to identify distinct activity pattern profiles. Data were collected using a general information questionnaire, the Adult Sedentary Behavior Questionnaire (ASBQ), the Chinese version of the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ-SC), the Exercise Self-Efficacy Scale (ESES), the Perceived Social Support Scale (PSSS), and the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS). Results: The activity patterns of breast cancer patients were categorized into three groups: Moderate Activity-Dominant Group (37.33%), Screen-Sedentary High-Risk Group (8.22%), and Activity-Sedentary Coexistence Group (54.45%). Logistic regression analysis showed that, compared to the Moderate Activity-Dominant Group, patients with low exercise self-efficacy and higher anxiety and depression levels were more likely to be classified into the Screen-Sedentary High-Risk Group and Activity-Sedentary Coexistence Group. Higher education levels and being on medical leave were associated with a higher probability of belonging to the Activity-Sedentary Coexistence Group (all Conclusion: Activity patterns in breast cancer patients show significant heterogeneity. Healthcare providers should pay attention to the individual physical activity characteristics of patients and offer personalized physical activity guidance. Tailored interventions that meet the needs of breast cancer patients should be developed to improve health outcomes.
