Efficacy of CPET Combined with Systematic Education of Cardiac Rehabilitation After PCI: A Real-World Evaluation in ACS Patients.
Article in Advances in therapy, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
introductionThere are scarce real-world data on the long-term efficacy and safety of cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) combined with the systematic education of cardiac rehabilitation (CR) approach for patients post-coronary stenting, which is, therefore, the subject of this study.
methodsData collected between 1 April 2015 and 20 May 2017 from 11,345 patients in the rehabilitation center database at our hospital were retrospectively analyzed. Five hundred thirty-six patients with incomplete information, or unable to cooperate with telephone follow-up, were excluded; 4001 patients received the combined CR approach; and 6808 patients received only routine post-procedure education (controls). Of these, 2805 CR participants (CR group) were matched 1:1 to controls (control group) using propensity scores. The main outcome was quality of life in Seattle Angina Questionnaire (SAQ) scores. SAQ was measured in hospital and at follow-up; meanwhile, volume/type of habitual exercise, major adverse cardiovascular event (MACE), and its components of target vessel revascularization, myocardial infarction, and cardiac death were recorded and analyzed.
resultsAt median 583 (range 184-963) day follow-up, compared with controls, the CR group showed fewer patients not engaging in physical exercise (22 vs. 956, p < 0.05); more cumulative exercise time (h/week) (8.22 ± 6.17 h vs. 3.00 ± 1.65 h, p < 0.05); higher SAQ scores (physical limitation, 69.59 ± 10.96 vs. 57.49 ± 7.19; anginal stability, 80.50 ± 18.21 vs. 58.82 ± 11.95; anginal frequency, 78.58 ± 11.07 vs. 67.14 ± 22.41; treatment satisfaction, 82.33 ± 13.21 vs. 56.84 ± 21.61; quality of life, 68.69 ± 18.33 vs. 60.26 ± 17.13, all p < 0.01), but a similar MACE rate (log-rank p = 0.621).
conclusionCompared with only routine post-procedure education, CR combining at least one-time CPET with a systematic cardiac education program before discharge improved engagement in physical activity and quality of life for patients after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) without increasing clinical adverse events.
