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

introductionHealth education is a component of complex cardiac rehabilitation (CCR).

aimTo evaluate the influence of an authorial extended educational program on the knowledge of cardiovascular risk factors among subjects undergoing early in-hospital rehabilitation following acute coronary syndrome treated with percutaneous intervention. MATERIAL AND

methodsThis prospective study covered 205 consecutive subjects (153 men and 52 women, aged 62 ±9 years) undergoing CCR. They were randomly allocated to the control group (105 patients receiving standard education during CCR) or the study group (100 patients participating in the extended education program). The extended education program was conducted in the 2

resultsKnowledge of basic rules for secondary cardiac prevention was better in the study group, both on admission and after CCR. Notwithstanding, a positive influence of the extended educational program was found with regard to awareness of recommended blood pressure levels and blood lipid profile (improvement of 15-20% in the study group). At baseline, the knowledge of risk factors was comparable between the groups (the percentage of correct questionnaire answers was 50 ±17% among the controls vs. 49 ±16% in the study group;

conclusionsExtended education during CCR significantly improves the knowledge of cardiovascular risk factors in patients after acute coronary syndrome.
