Influence of Daily Aerobic Exercise Duration on Phase 2 Cardiac Rehabilitation at a Rehabilitation Hospital and Health-Related Quality of Life After 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: Phase 2 in-patient cardiac rehabilitation (CR) at a rehabilitation hospital is now added the medical service fees in Japan and in light of the recent reimbursement for CR, a study needed to be performed to determine exertional exercise on its effectiveness and benefits to patients. We examined the effects of daily aerobic exercise duration on health-related quality of life (HR-QoL) at 6 months after discharge from phase 2 CR. Methods: Of the 54 consecutive cardiovascular disease patients admitted to a rehabilitation hospital after acute care, 43 were considered acceptable candidates for enrollment according to predetermined inclusion and exclusion criteria. Of these, 40 patients completed study requirements, including return of a questionnaire on HR-QoL survey 6 months after discharge. The primary outcome was HR-QoL as evaluated using the EuroQol five-dimension five-level (EQ-5D-5L). Two multiple regression models were constructed to assess the influences of daily aerobic exercise duration (content of rehabilitation) and other clinicodemographic variables assessed during acute care (model 1) or at transfer from acute care to a rehabilitation hospital (model 2). Results: Both model 1, which included age, Barthel index of daily function before hospitalization, and daily aerobic exercise duration in the rehabilitation hospital (R Conclusions: Enhanced daily aerobic exercise content during phase 2 in-hospital CR can significantly improve longer-term HR-QoL among cardiovascular disease patients independently of other clinicodemographic factors, including age, activities of daily living before treatment, and baseline condition at rehabilitation onset. These findings, that in the small sample size, support the continued expansion of phase 2 CR at a rehabilitation hospital in Japan.
