Observational study in Physiotherapy research international : the journal for researchers and clinicians in physical therapy, 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
background and purposeThe Canadian 24-Hour Movement Guidelines integrate recommendations on physical activity (PA), sedentary behavior (SB), and sleep. Individuals in cardiac rehabilitation programs (CRPs) have specific characteristics that may influence adherence to these 24-Hour Movement Guidelines and their relationship with quality of life. This study aimed to investigate the proportion of CRP participants who meet the recommendations of the Canadian 24-Hour Movement Guidelines and to evaluate the association between levels of PA, SB, and sleep duration with the quality-of-life domains of these individuals.
methodsThis was a cross-sectional observational study including CRP participants (mean age: 68.46 ± 10.15 years; 58.1% with coronary artery disease). Quality of life was assessed using the 36-Item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36). Movement behaviors (PA, SB, and sleep) were measured by accelerometers. Compliance with the guidelines was described using percentage values. Associations between PA, SB, and sleep with quality-of-life domains were analyzed using quantile regression. The significance level was set at 5%.
resultsAmong the 105 participants analyzed, only 2.9% simultaneously met all three recommendations. Individual adherence was 29.5% (PA), 9.5% (SB), and 34.3% (sleep). A negative association was identified between SB and functional capacity, and positive associations were found between PA and the domains of functional capacity, vitality, and social aspects. Sleep duration was not associated with quality-of-life domains. DISCUSSION: Few CRP participants simultaneously meet all three recommendations of the Canadian 24-Hour Movement Guidelines, with partial adherence being more frequent. Higher levels of PA and lower time spent in SB were associated with better quality of life, whereas sleep duration showed no significant association.
