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

purposeThe FitMáx© was developed as a questionnaire-based instrument to estimate Cardiorespiratory Fitness (CRF) expressed as oxygen uptake at peak exercise (VO PATIENTS AND

methodsA total of 127 cardiac, pulmonary and oncology patients and healthy subjects aged 19-84 years who completed the questionnaire twice within an average of 18 days were included for analysis. Participants were in a stable clinical situation (no acute disease or participating in a training program). To determine the test-retest reliability, the Intraclass Correlation Coefficient (ICC) and Standard Error of the Measurement (SEM) was calculated between the first (T

resultsAn excellent agreement was found between the FitMáx©-questionnaire scores at T

conclusionThe FitMáx©-questionnaire proves to be reliable and stable over time to estimate CRF of patients and healthy subjects. Trial registration NTR (Netherlands Trial Register), NL8846. Registered 25 August 2020, https://trialsearch.who.int/Trial2.aspx?TrialID=NL8846.
