Effects of comprehensive pulmonary rehabilitation therapy on pulmonary functions and blood gas indexes of patients with severe pneumonia.
Article in Experimental and therapeutic medicine, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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
In this study we try to observe the effects of comprehensive pulmonary rehabilitation therapy on pulmonary functions and blood gas indexes of patients with severe pneumonia during mechanical ventilation. A total of 120 patients with severe pneumonia were selected and divided into the experimental group (n=60) and the control group (n=60) through a random number table. Conventional therapy for severe pneumonia was applied to patients in both groups, and the experimental group was additionally treated with comprehensive pulmonary rehabilitation therapy, including warming-up exercise before training, respiratory function exercise, respiratory muscle training, health education, psychological support and nutritional intervention. The pulmonary function indexes, blood gas indexes, Borg index scores and 6-min walk distance (6MWD) of the two groups of patients were evaluated before treatment and at 6 months after treatment, respectively. In the control group, there were statistically significant differences only in forced expiratory volume in 1 sec (FEV1), ratio of FEV1 to forced vital capacity (FEV1/FVC), partial pressure of O
