1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

aimPhysical activity or exercise is a proven deterrent of cardiovascular diseases. The purpose of this study was to examine whether vitamin E supplementation interfere with the potential benefits of exercise. METHODS AND

resultsA total of 455 apparently healthy men and women were recruited, for a 2-month aerobic/cardiovascular exercise program. Subjects were randomly assigned for soft gel vitamin E or placebo (800 IU), and required to give blood at 0, 2, 4 and 8 weeks of exercise. Levels of lipid and markers of oxidative stress and inflammation were measured along with the VO2 and duration time spent on treadmill. Statistical analysis did not show significant changes in the levels of lipids and markers of oxidative stress and inflammation. Favorable trends among both of the randomization groups were observed in lipids, and some of the oxidative stress and inflammatory markers. This study also established several interesting correlations between VO2, and lipids on one hand and markers of oxidation and inflammation on the other hand. Reduction in LDL levels positively associated with increased levels of MCP-1 (P < 0.008) among placebo group, and also decreased hCRP levels strongly correlated with the increases in VO2 (P < 0.0004) among the placebo, and vitamin E subjects (P < 0.01).

conclusionsExercise training induces oxidative stress might be instrumental in favorable lipid reduction and markers of oxidative stress and inflammation. However interestingly, vitamin E didn't demonstrate favorable effects on the level of oxidative stress and inflammation associated with exercise.
