Multicomponent exercise training in cardiovascular complexity in prefrail older adults: a randomized blinded clinical pilot study.
Trial report in Brazilian journal of medical and biological research = Revista brasileira de pesquisas medicas e biologica, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of multicomponent training on baroreflex sensitivity (BRS) and heart rate (HR) complexity of prefrail older adults. Twenty-one prefrail community-dwelling older adults were randomized and divided into multicomponent training intervention group (MulTI) and control group (CG). MulTI performed multicomponent exercise training over 16 weeks and CG was oriented to follow their own daily activities. The RR interval (RRi) and blood pressure (BP) series were recorded for 15 min in supine and 15 min in orthostatic positions, and calculation of BRS (phase, coherence, and gain) and HR complexity (sample entropy) were performed. A linear mixed model was applied for group, assessments, and their interaction effects in supine position. The same test was used to assess the active postural maneuver and it was applied separately to each group considering assessments (baseline and post-intervention) and positions (supine and orthostatic). The significance level established was 5%. Cardiovascular control was impaired in prefrail older adults in supine position. Significant interactions were not observed between groups or assessments in terms of cardiovascular parameters. A 16-week multicomponent exercise training did not improve HR complexity or BRS in supine rest or in active postural maneuver in prefrail older adults.
