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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundThe relationship between exercise and cerebral oxygenation has gained increasing attention. However, few studies have investigated the correlation between exercise and cerebral oxygenation in patients with cardiopulmonary diseases.

objectivesTo investigate the correlation between exercise and cerebral oxygenation in patients with cardiopulmonary diseases.

methodsThirty eligible patients with cardiopulmonary diseases underwent incremental cardiopulmonary exercising test (CPET) and near-infrared spectroscopy with both right and left sensors placed at the mid forehead to detect oxygen saturation of cerebral tissue (STO2). Parameters of cerebral oxygenation and exercise intensity were collected and analyzed.

resultsThe average age of the patients was 51.17 ± 10.21 years and included 23 males and 7 females. The average maximal STO2 of the left and right brain during CPET were 51.850 ± 1.57% and 51.755 ± 1.90%, respectively. Meanwhile, mean oxygen consumption (VO2) while reaching maximal STO2 was 4.42 ± 1.05 metabolic equivalents (METs) over the left brain and 4.34 ± 1.17 METs over the right brain. The exercise intensity upon reaching maximal STO2 was 84.91 ± 11.70% over the left brain and 83.16 ± 14.64% over the right brain. Peak VO2 was significantly correlated to VO2 upon reaching maximal STO2 over the left and right brain (R = 0.805, p < 0.001 and R = 0.739, p < 0.001, respectively). Age was significantly negatively correlated to VO2 upon maximal STO2 over the left and right brain (R = -0.378, p = 0.039 and R = -0.513, p = 0.004, respectively).

conclusionsCerebral oxygenation increases with higher exercise intensity, and it reaches a maximal STO2 between respiratory compensation point and peak exercise. The higher the peak VO2, the better the VO2 upon reaching maximal STO2.
