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

purposeDespite national recommendations, exercise programs are still not clinically implemented as standard of care for cancer survivors. This investigation examined the effects of a clinically implemented and personalized exercise program on physical fitness, fatigue, and depression in a diverse population of cancer survivors. The association of various participant characteristics on program performance was also examined.

methodsData were collected from 170 cancer survivors who had participated in a clinical exercise program. Any cancer type was included and survivors were either undergoing medical treatment or had completed treatment (< 6 months prior to program initiation). Baseline and post program measures of estimated VO

resultsAll measures improved in participants who completed the program (p < 0.01). Age, gender, and BMI were associated with baseline measures of estimated VO

conclusionThis investigation provides evidence that a personalized, clinical exercise program can be effective at improving physical fitness, fatigue, and depression in a diverse population of cancer survivors.
