Exercise Capacity, Coronary Artery Fatty Plaque, Coronary Calcium Score, and Cardiovascular Events in Subjects With Stable Coronary Artery Disease.
Article in Journal of the American Heart Association, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Background Aerobic exercise capacity is inversely associated with cardiovascular and all-cause mortality in men and women without coronary artery disease (CAD); however, a higher amount of vigorous exercise is associated with a J-shaped relationship in CAD patients. Therefore, the optimal type and amount of exercise for CAD patients is unclear. Coronary artery calcification (CAC) is associated with increased cardiovascular disease (CVD) events and mortality. Fatty plaque is more likely to rupture and cause coronary events than other types. We examined the association between exercise capacity, fatty plaque, CAC score and CVD events in CAD patients. Methods and Results A total of 270 subjects with stable CAD were divided into tertiles based on metabolic equivalents of task (METs) calculated from exercise treadmill testing. Self-reported exercise was obtained. Coronary computed tomographic angiography measured coronary plaque volume and CAC score. After adjustment, fatty plaque volume was not different among the 3 MET groups. For each 1 MET increase, CAC was 66.2 units lower (
