Effects of Addition of Inspiratory Muscle Training to Exercise-Based Cardiac Rehabilitation on Inspiratory Muscle Strength, Peak Oxygen Consumption, and Selected Hemodynamics in Chronic Heart Failure.
Article in Acta Cardiologica Sinica, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07672041 (Efficacy of an Inspiratory Muscle Training Protocol With Resistive Airflow Loading on Exercise Capacity, Respiratory Muscle Strength and Quality of Life in Individuals With Heart Failure), which is not on this map.

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.

Abstract
Background: Evidence supports the clinical benefits of isolated inspiratory muscle training (IMT) in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF); however, the rationale of IMT in combination with exercise training in cardiac rehabilitation settings for CHF has yet to be confirmed. Objective: This study aimed to assess the effect of the addition of IMT in combination with aerobic/resistance training (AT/RT) on maximal inspiratory pressure (PImax), peak oxygen consumption (VO Methods: Twenty-five male patients with CHF completed a 6-month cardiac rehabilitation program of either a sham-IMT/AT/RT program (control group, 51.84 ± 4.56 years old, n Results: ΔPImax, ΔRHR, ΔHR reserve, and ΔMLwHFQ total score were significantly greater in the study group than in the control group (p < 0.05). In addition, ΔRPP showed an observed difference in favor of the study group with a tendency towards statistical significance (p = 0.07). Conclusions: IMT could be a successful complementary intervention to exercise-based cardiac rehabilitation programs comprising AT/RT, yielding greater improvements in PImax, RHR, HR reserve, and HRQoL in male patients with ischemic heart failure (NYHA class II-III).
