Comparative Assessment of CPET
Article in In vivo (Athens, Greece). The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundPrevalence of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is increasing in Germany. This study examined the work performance of healthy women compared to those with mild COPD. PATIENTS AND
methodsNineteen women suffering from COPD Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Diseases stage I and 41 healthy women underwent standardised cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPET) in comparison to 5 typical work-related tasks. Oxygen uptake, carbon dioxide output, ventilation volume, breathing frequency, heart rate and respiratory exchange ratio (RER) were measured. The activities were quantified. Wilcoxon test and ANOVA were calculated using the SPSS software.
resultsPatients with COPD had a lower exercise capacity compared to healthy women and also showed lower performance during work-related activities. Patients with COPD had a lower oxygen uptake (p<0.001), a higher breathing frequency was accompanied by a higher Borg scale. The heart rate and the ventilation volume as a percentage of maximum CPET were significantly higher in patients with COPD. Women suffering from progressive symptoms had lower oxygen uptakes and RER, whilst breathing frequency and Borg scale were elevated.
conclusionEven at an early stage of the disease, patients with COPD exhibited limitations in work-related tasks.
