Effect of exercise training modality on C-reactive protein in type 2 diabetes.
Trial report in Medicine and science in sports and exercise, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT00458133 (Health Benefits of Aerobic and Resistance Training in Individuals With Type 2 Diabetes), which is not on this map. Cited by 30 papers, 10 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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.

Abstract
purposeType 2 diabetes is associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease and elevated C-reactive protein (CRP) levels. Aerobic exercise training has been shown to improve CRP; however, there are limited data evaluating the effect of other exercise training modalities (aerobic, resistance, or combination training) in individuals with type 2 diabetes.
methodsParticipants (n = 204) were randomized to an aerobic exercise (aerobic), resistance exercise (resistance), or a combination of both (combination) for 9 months. CRP was evaluated at baseline and at follow-up.
resultsBaseline CRP was correlated with fat mass, waist circumference, body mass index, and VO(2peak) ̇(P < 0.05). CRP was not reduced after aerobic (0.16 mg·L(-1), 95% confidence interval (CI) = -1.0 to 1.3 mg·L(-1)), resistance (-0.03 mg·L(-1), 95% CI = -1.1 to 1.0 mg·L(-1)), or combination (-0.49 mg·L(-1), 95% CI = -1.5 to 0.6 mg·L(-1)) training compared to control (0.35 mg·L(-1), 95% CI = -1.0 to 1.7 mg·L(-1)). Changes in fasting glucose (r = 0.20, P = 0.009), glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) (r = 0.21, P = 0.005), and fat mass (r = 0.19, P = 0.016) were associated with reductions in CRP but not with change in fitness or weight (P > 0.05). There were significant trends observed for CRP among tertiles of change in HbA1c (P = 0.009) and body fat (P = 0.040).
conclusionsAerobic, resistance, or a combination of both did not reduce CRP levels in individuals with type 2 diabetes. However, exercise-related improvements in HbA1c, fasting glucose, and fat mass were associated with reductions in CRP.
