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
Exercise therapy has proven to be effective in the treatment of multiple mental illnesses. As mental disorders result in tremendous costs for the healthcare system as well as a huge burden for the affected individuals, improving treatment strategies according to latest scientific evidence should be of highest priority. In 2016 a first study provided indications that only a minority of patients are treated with exercise therapy during their stay in hospital. Hence, the aim of this study was to assess the actual extent of exercise therapy usage in psychiatric inpatients in Germany, thereby giving a scientific foundation to the call for a better standard of care. To achieve this, a retrospective analysis was performed on pre-existing data from 2693 patients who were treated in 1 of 4 participating university hospitals. Only 23% of these patients participated in exercise therapy with a mean training duration of 36 min per week. Patients with the diagnosis of schizophrenia or patients with multiple comorbidities were even less likely to participate in exercise therapy. With these findings it becomes evident that the healthcare situation concerning exercise therapy is insufficient. Solid evidence for the effectiveness of exercise therapy, the current treatment guidelines as well as the positive side effects, especially when compared to side effects of pharmacotherapy (i.e. weight gain) should motivate healthcare officials to make an effort to improve this situation.
