ReviewProgress in cardiovascular diseases
Impact of fitness and changes in fitness on lipids and survival.
Review in Progress in cardiovascular diseases. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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 the past five decades, cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) has become fairly established as an important risk factor or marker for cardiovascular disease (CVD), as well as CVD - and all-cause mortality. Substantial evidence supports a strong inverse association between baseline levels of CRF and the risk of developing CVD risk factors, including dyslipidemia. Additionally, accumulating evidence also supports that maintaining or improving a certain level of CRF over time leads to a lower rate of developing CVD risk factors, such as dyslipidemia, and also improves survival. Recent evidence also supports the role of resistance exercise and muscular strength to reduce the development of metabolic syndrome and hypercholesterolemia and potentially reduce development of diabetes as well, in addition to improving survival. Therefore, great efforts are needed to increase both CRF and muscle strength with aerobic exercise and resistance exercise in the primary and secondary prevention of CVD.
