Effects of a combined exercise plus diet program on cardiorespiratory fitness of breast cancer patients.
Trial report in Breast cancer (Tokyo, Japan), 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 7 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
backgroundDecreases in cardiorespiratory fitness among breast cancer patients have often been reported in previous studies, affecting patients' health and survival. Peak oxygen uptake ([Formula: see text]) is the gold standard for assessing cardiorespiratory fitness and is inversely correlated with cardiovascular disease among women with breast cancer. Some previous studies have reported that aerobic exercise and proper diet positively influence [Formula: see text]. However, almost all studies have been conducted in the Western countries, and few studies are investigating on Asian women who have lower BMI compared with Western ones. PURPOSE: Investigating the effects of a combined exercise and diet program among Japanese cancer patients undergoing therapy on [Formula: see text].
methodsThirty-two Japanese women with breast cancer undergoing endocrine therapy (age; 50 ± 6 years, body weight; 59 ± 10 kg) were voluntarily assigned to either intervention group (n = 21) or control group (n = 11). The intervention group completed a 12-week combined exercise plus diet program, consisting of weekly aerobic exercise and maintaining a nutritionally well-balanced 1200 kcal/day diet. The control group was instructed to continue with their usual activities. Anthropometric indices and [Formula: see text] were measured at baseline and after the 12-week program.
resultsAll 21 women completed the 12-week program. The [Formula: see text] significantly increased from 26.7 to 30.4 mL/kg/min (1.57-1.62 L/min) in the intervention group, while it remained unchanged (26.9-26.9 mL/kg/min) in the control group. Mean reduction of body mass index was - 2.1 in the intervention group (P < .001) and + 0.1 in the control group.
conclusionsOur combined exercise plus diet program may contribute to improvement in cardiorespiratory fitness and body weight compared with control group.
