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

backgroundCardiovascular disease is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in the world, including China. Cardiac rehabilitation (CR) has been demonstrated to be beneficial in reducing cardiovascular mortality, myocardial infarction, and cerebrovascular events. This pilot study seeks to assess the feasibility of aerobic-exercise-based CR in Chinese patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) and outcomes of aerobic metabolism capacity and molecular biomarkers. METHODS/

designThis study is a single-center, pilot, randomized, controlled study that is currently being carried out at a regional hospital in Shanghai. Forty patients with CHD who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention will be randomly allocated into either the intervention group or control group. Participants in the intervention group will undergo 8 weeks of aerobic exercise with targeted intensity and participants in the control group will undergo 8 weeks of leisure exercise. The primary measurement is the feasibility of the trial; the secondary measurement is the capacity of aerobic metabolism and the exploratory measurement includes additional molecular biomarkers underlying cardiovascular function. DISCUSSION: This is the first prospective randomized and controlled clinical study in China that assesses the parameters of aerobic metabolism and comprehensively screens for substantial blood biomarkers to reveal the molecular mechanisms underlying changes in cardiovascular function after aerobic exercise with targeted intensity in participants with CHD. The success of this study will contribute to guide the design of future CR studies in patients with CHD in China.
