Cost-effectiveness of a symptom management intervention: improving physical activity in older women following coronary artery bypass surgery.
Article in Nursing economic$. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map.

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.

Abstract
Older women have lower levels of physical functioning and higher associated health care costs than men after coronary artery bypass surgery (CABS). Clinical trials have demonstrated that interventions to increase physical activity levels can reduce the risk of recurrent cardiac events, reduce health care expenditures, prolong life, improve functional capacity, and increase quality of life in the elderly cardiac population. It is important for the patients, providers, health care payers, and policymakers to identify a cost-effective recovery intervention that has the potential to increase women's physical activity and functioning during their early recovery from CABS, especially in this time of limited health care resources. This home-based symptom management intervention has the potential to reduce the risk of recurrent cardiac events and health care cost by improving women's physical activity level after surgery. This information is vital to nursing leaders in making resource decisions regarding followup care of women who have had heart surgery.
