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

backgroundPrevious research demonstrates greater survival among coronary artery disease (CAD) patients who engage in cardiac rehabilitation. No national prospective studies, however, have examined the effects of objectively measured free-living physical activity on mortality among CAD patients, which is important because only 25% of eligible cardiac patients participate in cardiac rehabilitation. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to examine the association between objectively measured free-living physical activity on all-cause mortality among a national sample of CAD patients. HYPOTHESIS: We hypothesize that free-living physical activity will be inversely associated with all-cause mortality risk among CAD patients.

methodsData from the 2003 to 2006 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey were used, with follow-up through 2011. Physical activity was assessed over 7 days during waking hours using the ActiGraph 7164 accelerometer.

resultsAmong the 256 CAD adults (representative of 6.5 million CAD patients in the United States), 68 died over the follow-up period (26.56%). The median follow-up period was 76.5 months (interquartile range = 62-91 months). After adjustment, for every 60-minute increase in daily free-living physical activity, CAD patients had a 16% reduced risk of all-cause mortality (hazard ratio: 0.84, 95% confidence interval: 0.72-0.97).

conclusionsFree-living objectively measured physical activity is associated with greater survival among CAD patients in the United States. If confirmed by future research, development of strategies to not only increase participation in supervised cardiac rehabilitation, but also increase participation in free-living physical activity, are needed.
