Article in International journal of inflammation, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT05563493 (Comparison of the Effects of Chair-Based Exercise Training on Respiratory Functions, Exercise Capacity and Quality of Life in Patients With Acute Exacerbation of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease), which is not on this map. Cited by 8 papers, 3 of them syntheses that pooled it.

1 · What the graph read from 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.

Abstract

introductionAcute exacerbation is an important factor for a worse prognosis in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). It promotes the increase of the inflammatory process and worsens quality of life, lung function, and muscle weakness. It is believed that physical exercise performed during the exacerbation breaks the vicious cycle of systemic manifestations without an increase in the inflammatory process.

objectiveTo evaluate the influence of short-term aerobic physical exercise during hospitalization on inflammatory markers.

resultsPatients of both groups did not differ in severity of disease and general characteristics. The intervention group did not show worsening in the inflammatory process after aerobic activity: TNF-

conclusionThe present study showed that the aerobic physical activity initiated during hospitalization in patients with exacerbated COPD did not worsen the inflammatory process.
