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

introductionModern cardiac rehabilitation (CR) is a thorough approach including multiple arms that aim at improving quality of life and functional capacity.

aimTo study the impact of age on the benefits of cardiac rehabilitation program post-successful primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).

methodsThis retrospective study includes 250 patients post primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) who underwent a complete 12-week cardiac rehabilitation program. Functional capacity, metabolic profile, and parameters of diastolic function were assessed and compared at baseline and after completing the program. Four age strata were compared in terms of improvement of the various parameters studied.

resultsIn the whole patient group, the workload achieved in metabolic equivalents (METS) and maximum exercise time significantly increased. Regarding metabolic profile, body mass index (BMI), total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein (LDL), and Triglycerides significantly decreased. While high-density lipoproteins (HDL) increased but didn't reach significance. Echo data reflecting diastolic dysfunction also improved significantly. We found that the magnitude of improvement in all the earlier-mentioned parameters showed no statistically significant difference among the four age groups studied.

conclusionCardiac rehabilitation program post primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) significantly improves functional capacity, metabolic profile, and diastolic function. It is never too old or too young to join the CR program. Different age groups benefit equally from rehabilitation.
