Impacts of Exercise Interventions on Inflammatory Markers and Vascular Adhesion Molecules in Patients With Heart Failure: A Meta-analysis of RCTs.
Review in CJC open, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers, 2 of them syntheses 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
Background: The aim of this meta-analysis was to investigate the effects of concurrent, aerobic, and resistance exercise on markers of inflammation and vascular adhesion molecules (high-sensitivity C-reactive protein [hs-CRP], interleukin [IL]-6, tumour necrosis factor-alpha [TNF-α], soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1 [sICAM-1], soluble vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 [sVCAM-1], fibrinogen, IL-1-β, IL-10, IL-18, and E-selectin) in patients with heart failure (HF). Methods: The PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and Google Scholar databases were searched for dates up to August 31, 2022. Randomized controlled trial studies for exercise interventions on circulating inflammatory and vascular adhesion markers in patients with HF were included. Standardized mean difference (SMD) and 95% confidence interval (CI) were calculated. Results: A total of 45 articles were included. Exercise training significantly reduced hs-CRP (SMD -0.441 [95% CI: -0.642 to -0.240], Conclusions: These exercise-related changes (improved inflammation and vascular adhesion markers) as clinical benefits in general, and for exercise-based cardiac rehabilitation in a more-specific format, improve clinical evolution and survival in patients with HF of different etiologies (registration number = CRD42021271423).
