Impact of early mobilization on clinical and functional outcomes in patients submitted to coronary artery bypass grafting.
Article in American journal of cardiovascular disease, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
introductionHeart surgery is a feature that has grown a lot in recent years. Due to the complications that can be generated, the importance of prevention emerges, thus seeking effective protocols that generate improvement in clinical and functional outcomes to promote a shorter hospital stay and readmission.
objectiveTo evaluate the impact of early mobilization on clinical and functional outcomes in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting. METHODOLOGY: This was a prospective cohort study. Patients were evaluated preoperatively through the Medical Research Council (MRC), Functional Independence Measurement (FIM), Six-Minute Walk Test (6MWT). After the surgery they were divided into two groups: the mobilized group (MG) where patients performed bed transfer to armchair on the 1st postoperative day and ambulated on the 2nd day, and the non-mobilized group (NMG) who underwent passive kinesiotherapy in bed. At ICU discharge, mechanical ventilation (MV) time, intensive care unit stay (ICU) and mortality were compared. At hospital discharge, preoperative tests were repeated to compare with admission.
resultsA total of 103 patients were admitted, 59 (57.3%) males, mean age 64 ± 8 years. Time of MV it was 6 ± 2 (MG) vs 10 ± 3 (NMG) hours, P = 0.02, ICU stay it was 2 ± 2 (MG) vs 4 ± 3 (NMG) days (P ≤ 0.001), length of stay hospital was 8 ± 4 (MG) vs 14 ± 5 (NMG) days (P ≤ 0.001), FIM -4 ± 2 (MG) vs -11 ± 4 (NMG) points (P ≤ 0.001) and distance traveled 37 ± 10 (MG) vs 78 ± 11 (NMG) meters (P < 0.001).
conclusionEarly mobilization is associated with improvement in clinical outcomes such as MV time, ICU stay, hospital and functional outcomes, on the FIM scale and distance traveled.
