Comparative Assessment of the Long-Term Efficacy of Home-Based Versus Center-Based Cardiac Rehabilitation.
Review in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 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
Cardiac rehabilitation programs support the health, wellness, and recovery of patients with cardiovascular conditions. This systematic review attempts to expand these findings while analyzing the latest randomized controlled trials (RCTs) focusing on the long-term advantages of home/center-based cardiac rehabilitation interventions. This study also comparatively analyzes the benefits of opting for home-based cardiac rehabilitation instead of center-based measures to improve the long-term clinical outcomes of cardiac patients. We extracted and analyzed 10 studies (based on 1,549 cardiac patients) concerning the therapeutic efficacy of center/home-based cardiac rehabilitation interventions. The included studies complied with the year range of 2000-2021. The risk of bias assessment was undertaken using the Cochrane Risk-of-Bias tool to evaluate random sequence generation, allocation concealment, blinding of subjects, outcome data completeness, and selective reporting patterns concerning the included RCTs. The findings of our systematic review confirmed the capacity of a home-based cardiac rehabilitation program to effectively improve left ventricular ejection fraction, health-related quality of life, physical fitness, recovery rate, self-efficacy, sedentary lifestyle, physical activity, satisfaction level, functional capacity, social support, and hemodynamic parameters of patients with cardiovascular diseases. Home-based cardiac rehabilitation had the potential to minimize the levels of triglycerides, anxiety, depression, waist circumference, and body mass index/weight of cardiac patients. The results of our systematic review affirmed the long-term therapeutic efficacy of a home-based cardiac rehabilitation program compared to a center-based cardiac rehabilitation program for adult cardiac patients.
