Associations between eHealth literacy and 24-hour movement behaviors in older adults: the mediating and moderating roles of self-efficacy.

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
Background: Older adults increasingly rely on digital health resources, yet evidence regarding the relationship between eHealth literacy (eHL) and 24-hour movement behaviors (24-HMB), including physical activity (PA), sedentary behavior (SB), and sleep, remains underexplored. This study examined the associations between eHL and 24-HMB in Chinese older adults and examined self-efficacy as a potential mediator and moderator. Methods: Using a convenience sampling approach, 564 community-dwelling older adults (aged 60-74 years) were recruited from four urban Chinese cities via an online survey. A total of 553 valid cases were retained for analyses. eHL was assessed using the eHealth Literacy Scale-Web 3.0, and self-efficacy was assessed using a validated Self-Efficacy Scale. PA and SB were assessed objectively using ActiGraph GT3X+ accelerometers over three consecutive days (two weekdays and one weekend day). Sleep duration was derived from accelerometer-based estimates anchored by daily sleep logs. Multiple linear regression analyses were conducted to examine associations, and mediation and moderation were tested using PROCESS macro (Model 4 and Model 1, respectively), adjusting for age, sex, and education. Results: After adjustment for covariates ( Conclusion: In this cross-sectional, urban, device-using sample of older adults, higher eHL was associated with a more favorable 24-HMB profile, particularly higher LPA and lower SB, while associations with sleep duration were weaker. Self-efficacy showed modest indirect associations consistent with partial mediation for PA and SB and also acted as a moderator of several associations. Given the observational design and modest effect sizes, findings should be interpreted cautiously and require confirmation in longitudinal or experimental studies with more representative sampling and improved sleep assessment.
