Impaired heart rate recovery as a predictor for poor health-related quality in patients with transient ischemic attack.
Observational study in Medicine, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
We aimed to investigate heart rate recovery (HRR) in patients with transient ischemic attack (TIA) and the relationship between HRR and health-related quality of life (HRQOL).All available patients were enrolled during the enrollment period. A total of 120 patients with TIA and 120 healthy controls were included in this study. A treadmill stress test was performed to calculate the HRR. The HRR were calculated as follows: HRR 1, 2, 3, and 5 minutes = heart rate at peak during exercise - heart rate at 1, 2, 3, and 5 minutes at rest. All patients enrolled were asked to fill in the Short Form 36 Health Survey to calculate HRQOL.We found that the maximum heart rate of TIA patients was significantly higher than that of healthy controls (166 ± 11 vs. 162 ± 14 beats/min, P = .015). Similarly, maximum systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) were higher in TIA group compared with healthy control group (SBP: 172 ± 15 vs. 165 ± 14 mm Hg, P < .001; DBP: 102 ± 12 vs. 93 ± 16 mm Hg, P < .001). The HRR were significantly lower in TIA group compared with control group (TIA vs. controls, HRR1: 17 ± 7 vs. 30 ± 8 beats/min, HRR2: 32 ± 11 vs. 49 ± 9 beats/min, HRR3: 43 ± 13 vs. 63 ± 12 beats/min, HRR5: 54 ± 16 vs. 73 ± 15 beats/min, all P < .001). Multivariate analysis showed that older age (P = .03) and high BMI (P = .04) were risk factors associated with abnormal HRR in patients with TIA. With regard to HRQOL, we found that role limitations due to physical problems, general health, vitality, and role limitations due to emotional problems were significantly lower in patients with abnormal HRR compared with patients with normal HRR. Multivariate analysis showed that older age (P = .04) and abnormal HRR (P = .03) were predictors for poor HRQOL in TIA patients.HRR was impaired in patients with TIA. In addition, TIA patients with abnormal HRR suffered from a significantly poorer HRQOL. Hence, given the prognostic value of HRR, patients with TIA should be monitored to prevent cardiovascular events and to improve HRQOL.
