A randomized trial of aerobic exercise in chronic kidney disease: Evidence for blunted cardiopulmonary adaptations.
Trial report in Annals of physical and rehabilitation medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT02050035 (Exercise and Vascular Function in Chronic Kidney Disease), which is not on this map. Cited by 15 papers, 5 of them syntheses 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.

Abstract
backgroundPatients with chronic kidney disease have reduced cardiorespiratory fitness levels that contribute to mortality.
objectivesThe purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of aerobic exercise on cardiopulmonary function in patients with chronic kidney disease.
methodsA total of 36 patients (mean [SD] estimated glomerular filtration rate 44 [12] ml/min/1.73m
resultsExercise training improved VO
conclusionsCardiopulmonary adaptations appeared to be attenuated in patients with chronic kidney disease and were not fully restored to levels observed in healthy individuals. Improvements in exercise capacity did not confer benefits to physical function. Interventions coupled with exercise may be required to enhance adaptations in chronic kidney disease. Performed according to CONSORT guidelines; ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT02050035.
