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

Patients with arterial hypertension (AH), especially women, often report exercise intolerance and dyspnea. However, these symptoms are not frequently reflected in standard assessments. The aim of the study was to evaluate the clinical value of impedance cardiography (ICG) in the hemodynamic assessment of patients with AH during exercise, particularly the differences between subgroups based on sex and the presence of dyspnea. Ninety-eight patients with AH (52 women; 54.5 ± 8.2 years of age) were evaluated for levels of N-terminal pro-B-type brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), exercise capacity (cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) and the 6-min walk test (6MWT)), and exercise ICG. Patients with AH were stratified into the following four subgroups: males without dyspnea (MnD, n = 38); males with dyspnea (MD, n = 8); females without dyspnea (FnD, n = 27); and females with dyspnea (FD, n = 25). In comparison with the MnD subgroup, the FnD subgroup demonstrated significantly higher NT-proBNP levels; lower exercise capacity (shorter 6MWT distance, lower peak oxygen uptake (VO
