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

backgroundHealth-related quality of life (HRQoL) is an important outcome in coronary heart disease (CHD). However, variability in HRQoL indicators suggests a need to consider domain coverage. This review applies a globally accepted framework, the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF), to map HRQoL measures that are reliable and valid among people with CHD.

methodsThe Embase, Pubmed and PsycInfo databases were searched, with 10 observational studies comparing HRQOL among 4786 adults with CHD to 50949 controls identified. Study reporting quality was examined (QualSyst). Hedges' g statistic (with 95% CIs and p values) was used to measure the effect size for the difference between group means (≤ 0.2 small, ≤ 0.5 medium, ≤ 0.80 large difference), and between-study heterogeneity (tau, I

resultsAdults with CHD reported lowered HRQoL (g

conclusionsThe ICF provides a framework for evaluating and understanding the impact of CHD on HRQoL. The results demonstrate that HRQoL goes beyond physical symptoms, with activity limitations, social support and participation, and personal perceptions identified as key ICF domains in CHD assessment. Further investigations are needed to unravel the dynamic and inter-relationships between these domains, including longitudinal trends in HRQoL indicators.
