Rapid Improvements in Physical Activity and Sedentary Behavior in Patients With Acute Myocardial Infarction Immediately Following Hospital Discharge.

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
Background Little is known about changes in physical activity (PA) and sedentary behavior (SB) patterns in the acute phase of a myocardial infarction (MI). We objectively assessed PA and SB during hospitalization and the first week after discharge. Methods and Results Consecutively admitted patients hospitalized with an MI were approached to participate in this prospective cohort study. SB, light-intensity PA, and moderate-vigorous intensity PA were objectively assessed for 24 h/d during hospitalization and up to 7 days after discharge in 165 patients. Changes in PA and SB from the hospital to home phase were evaluated using mixed-model analyses, and outcomes were stratified for predefined subgroups based on patient characteristics. Patients (78% men) were aged 65±10 years and diagnosed with ST-segment-elevation MI (50%) or non-ST-segment-elevation MI (50%). Sedentary time was high during hospitalization (12.6 [95% CI, 11.8-13.7] h/d) but substantially decreased following transition to the home environment (-1.8 [95% CI, -2.4 to -1.3] h/d). Furthermore, the number of prolonged sedentary bouts (≥60 minutes) decreased between hospital and home (-1.6 [95% CI, -2.0 to -1.2] bouts/day). Light-intensity PA (1.1 [95% CI, 0.8-1.6] h/d) and moderate-vigorous intensity PA (0.2 [95% CI, 0.1-0.3] h/d) were low during hospitalization but significantly increased following transition to the home environment (light-intensity PA: 1.8 [95% CI, 1.4-2.3] h/d; moderate-vigorous intensity PA: 0.4 [95% CI, 0.3-0.5] h/d; both
