Is there a role of pulmonary rehabilitation in extrapulmonary diseases frequently encountered in the practice of physical medicine and rehabilitation?
Review in Turkish journal of physical medicine and rehabilitation, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
There is a group of diseases such as low back pain, osteoporosis, fibromyalgia and obesity for which pulmonary rehabilitation can be applied. Although these diseases do not directly impact the lungs, respiratory dysfunction occurs through various mechanisms during the disease process and complicates the underlying primary disease. Respiratory dysfunction and spirometric abnormalities have been observed from the early stages of these diseases, even without obvious signs and symptoms. These patients should be carefully evaluated for pulmonary problems as a sedentary lifestyle may hide the presence of respiratory symptoms. Once pulmonary problems have been detected, pulmonary rehabilitation should be added to the routine treatment of the primary disease.
