Health-Related Quality of Life in Older Adults With Acute Cardiovascular Disease Undergoing Early Mobilization.

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
backgroundEarly mobilization (EM) is safe and feasible in older adults with acute cardiovascular disease (CVD) and may improve posthospitalization patient-centred outcomes. Our objective was to assess posthospitalization health-related quality of life (HRQOL) in older adults with acute CVD undergoing EM.
methodsPatients aged ≥ 60 years with acute CVD undergoing EM at an academic tertiary centre in Montreal, Quebec were prospectively enrolled from January 2018 to January 2020. Functional status was measured using the validated Level of Function Mobility Scale. HRQOL was measured using the Short-Form 36 questionnaire at 1 and 12 months posthospitalization. The primary outcome was the questionnaire's physical component summary (PCS) score at 1 month posthospitalization.
resultsThere were 147 patients included in the analysis (aged 75.0 ± 8.7 years; 44.6% female; 48.6% with ischemic heart disease). The mean 1-month PCS score was 34.7 ± 9.7, which was 11.5 points and 8.4 points lower compared to age-matched Canadian normative data for people ages 65-74 years and ≥ 75 years, respectively. The mean PCS score at 12 months (36.5 ± 9.2) and the mean mental component summary scores at 1 and 12 months (36.9 ± 11.1; 40.5 ± 11.5) were lower than those of the age-matched population (all
conclusionsOlder adults with acute CVD had lower HRQOL at 1 and 12 months posthospitalization than age-matched Canadian norms. Prehospitalization functional status was predictive of poor posthospitalization HRQOL. The EM program was safe and feasible in this patient population. Further studies are needed to determine whether EM can improve posthospitalization patient-centred outcomes in older adults, particularly those with poor prehospitalization functional status.
