Effect of cardiac rehabilitation on the renal function in chronic kidney disease - Analysis using serum cystatin-C based glomerular filtration rate.
Article in International journal of cardiology. Heart & vasculature, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 papers.
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
backgroundWhether an individually determined appropriate level of cardiac rehabilitation (CR) has a favorable effect on the renal function still remains unclarified. The aim of this study was to confirm the effect of CR on the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) using cystatin C, which is known to be unaffected by physical exercise.
methodsThe study population was comprised of 86 patients (61 males; average age 74 y/o) with a lower-moderate level of chronic kidney disease (CKD) who was admitted to our hospital for treatment of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and who participated in our 3-month CR program. The exercise capacity was assessed by cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPX) and the eGFR was measured by a formula based on the serum cystatin C concentration (eGFRcys) in each patient both at the beginning and end of the CR.
resultsIn the CVD patients with CKD, both the peak oxygen uptake (VO
conclusionsIn CVD patients, a novel CR program significantly improved the exercise capacity. Further, CR was shown to have a favorable effect on the renal function when it was estimated by the eGFRcys.
