Capacity and equity in cardiac rehabilitation in the eastern region: good and bad news.
Article in Irish journal of medical science. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
aimTo document current baseline eligibility for Phase 3 cardiac rehabilitation (CR) and the capacity to meet this need in hospitals in the Eastern Regional Health Authority.
methodsInformation on the eligible population and the capacity for CR was collected in all nine hospitals retrospectively (February-March 2001).
resultsForty-seven per cent of eligible patients were invited to participate with only two-thirds attending. Completion rates were very high (89%) in attenders. Age and health board area were significant independent predictors of being invited to CR. Gender was not independent of age. Fifty-three per cent of the need for this service was met by capacity in the region's nine hospitals in 2000 rising to 59% in 2002.
conclusionsMany eligible patients are not invited to CR. Lack of capacity is a problem. Among the invited, non-participation is a factor. Inequity in age and inter-hospital variation in invitation is noted.
