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
backgroundInflammation is the driving force in atherosclerosis. One central strategy in the treatment of peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is the promotion of angiogenesis. Here, proangiogenic Tie-2 expressing monocytes (TEM) and circulating angiogenic cells (CAC) play a crucial role. Exercise training (ET) is recommended in PAD patients at Fontaine stage II to promote angiogenesis.
methods40 patients with intermittend claudication (IC) [2 groups: supervised ET (SET) vs. non-supervised ET (nSET), each n = 20] and 20 healthy controls were included in the study. Analysis of TEM and CAC was performed from whole blood by flow-cytometry. TEM were identified via CD45, CD86, CD14, CD16 and analysed for the expression of Tie-2. CAC were identified via their expression of CD45 (CD45dim), CD34 and VEGF-R2 (CD309/KDR). Follow up was performed after mean of 7.65 ± 1.62 months.
resultsIn comparison to healthy controls, we found increased proportions of CAC (p < 0.0001) and similar TEM numbers in both ET groups. At follow-up (FU) TEM poroportions increased (p < 0.001) and CAC proportions decreased (p < 0.01), but both more significantly in SET (p < 0.001) than nSET (p = 0.01). Only in SET fibrinogen levels decreased and VEGF-A increased (both p < 0.05). Finally, we found in both ET groups a significant increase in absolute walking distance but with a higher individual increase in SET (p < 0.01). TEM and CAC proportions correlated inversely with the absolute walking distance (CAC: r = -0.296, p = 0.02; TEM: r = -0.270, p = 0.04) as well as with ABI (CAC: r = -0.394, p < 0.01; TEM: r = -0.382, p < 0.01).
conclusionsET influences the distribution of CAC and TEM proportions. nSET, although still effective in regard to an improved walking distance, is less effective in the influence of proangiogenic cells and inflammatory burden than SET. Our results indicate SET to be a more preferential exercise form, supporting the necessity to establish more SET programs.
