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

objectivesTo meta-analyze lipid outcomes from supervised exercise interventions among healthy adults.

methodsComprehensive search strategies identified trials testing supervised exercise interventions in samples of healthy adults. Data were coded and analyzed using random effects meta-analysis methods. Moderator analyses explored whether design, sample, or intervention characteristics were linked with lipid outcomes.

resultsData were analyzed from 344 comparisons. The overall mean effect size for 2-group comparisons was 0.28, corresponding to reduced total cholesterol of 8.65 mg/dl. Study effect sizes were greater where participants were obese at baseline, and for interventions utilizing low-intensity exercise.

conclusionsSupervised exercise interventions can improve lipid outcomes for healthy adults, with possible greater improvement for obese individuals, and through low-intensity exercise.
