1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Heart failure (HF) is a complex clinical syndrome caused by a structural and/or functional cardiac abnormality, resulting in reduced organ perfusion. The goals of treatment in patients with HF are to improve functional capacity and quality of life, and to reduce mortality. Cardiac rehabilitation (CR) including exercise training is one of the treatment options, and current guidelines recommend CR as safe and effective for patients with HF. CR has been known to improve exercise capacity and quality of life, minimize HF progression, and lower mortality in patients with HF. Improvement of vascular endothelial function, activation of the neurohormonal system, increase of mitochondrial oxygen utilization in peripheral muscles, and increase of chronotropic responses are possible mechanisms of the beneficial effects of exercise-based CR in HF. Although CR has been shown to decrease morbidity and mortality, it is underutilized in clinical practice. Despite the existence of concrete evidence of clinical benefits, the CR participation rates of patients with HF range from only 14% to 43% worldwide, with high dropout rates after enrollment. These low participation rates have been attributed to several barriers, including patient factors, professional factors, and service factors. The motivation for participating in CR and for overcoming the patients' barriers for CR before discharge should be provided to each patient. Current guidelines strongly recommend applying a CR program to all eligible patients with HF.
