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

backgroundThis meta-analysis aimed to compare the effects of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) and moderate-intensity continuous training (MICT) on blood pressure in patients with essential hypertension to explore more suitable training.

methodsPubMed, EBSCO, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, CNKI, and VIP databases were searched for randomized controlled trials published between January 2002 and November 2022. Weighted mean differences (WMDs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were selected as the effect scale indices for the evaluation of the differences in post-intervention systolic blood pressure (SBP), and diastolic blood pressure (DBP), heart rate, maximum oxygen uptake (VO2max), and flow-mediated vasodilation. All these were compared using Review Manager 5.3 and Stata 14.0.

resultsA total of 13 randomized controlled trials and 442 patients were included. The meta-analyses revealed no statistically significant differences between HIIT and MICT in improving SBP and DBP in patients with hypertension. Subgroup analyses revealed that HIIT was better than MICT in reducing SBP during daytime monitoring (WMD = -4.14, 95%CI: [-6.98, -1.30], P < .001). In addition, HIIT increased flow-mediated vasodilation more than MICT in hypertensive patients (WMD = 2.75, 95%CI: [0.43, 5.07], P = .02).

conclusionHIIT and MICT have similar effects on the overall resting SBP and DBP in patients with hypertension and prehypertension. However, HIIT is better than MICT at reducing SBP during daytime monitoring. In addition, HIIT can improve vasodilation.
