The effect of a short-term exercise programme on haemodynamic adaptability; a randomised controlled trial with newly diagnosed transient ischaemic attack patients.
Trial report in Journal of human hypertension, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
This study assessed the effect of a short-term, 8-week exercise programme on resting and exercise blood pressure (systolic (SBP); diastolic (DBP)), and other haemodynamic responses (heart rate (HR), pulse pressure (PP), double product (DP)), of newly diagnosed transient ischaemic attack (TIA) patients. Sixty-eight TIA patients completed a continuous and incremental exercise test within 2 weeks of symptom diagnosis. HR, SBP and DBP were regularly measured at rest, during exercise and in recovery. Participants were then randomised to either an 8-week exercise programme or to a usual care control group prior to completing an identical post-intervention (PI) re-assessment. Individuals randomised to the exercise condition experienced a significantly greater reduction in resting HR (-5.4±10.2%), SBP (-6.7±8.1%) and DBP (-2.8±7.2%) than the control group at the PI assessment (all P<0.05). Similar findings were demonstrated at the PI assessment when comparing haemodynamic responses during exercise (P<0.05), with significantly larger decrements observed for SBP and HR (both 10-14%), PP (17-24%) and DP (26-32%) for those randomised to the exercise intervention (all P<0.05). This study demonstrates that structured physical activity soon after TIA diagnosis will improve haemodynamic responses. The early implementation of exercise following TIA diagnosis may be an important secondary prevention strategy for this population.
