Effects of aerobic combined with resistance exercise on cardiorespiratory fitness and cardiometabolic health in breast cancer survivors: A Systematic Review, meta-analysis and meta-regression.

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: Cardiotoxicity from chemotherapy is a serious risk to the quality of survival of breast cancer survivors (BCS), and aerobic combined with resistance exercise (CE) has the potential to combat this cardiac damage. However, there is a lack of high-quality studies to assess the specific effects of CE. This study aimed to investigate the effects of CE on cardiopulmonary function (CRF) and cardiometabolic health in BCS. Methods: A comprehensively searched of the 4 databases (PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane Library) from the database construction until March 1, 2023. The included studies were randomized controlled trials (RCTs) reporting the effects of CE on CRF and cardiometabolic health in BCS. The quality of the literature was assessed by two independent reviewers using the Cochrane Collaboration Risk of Bias Tool. Weight means difference (WMD), or standardized mean difference (SMD), were combined using random or fixed effects models. Subgroup and meta-regression explored heterogeneity as well as covariate effects. Results: 40 studies were included in the meta-analysis, with 2849 participants. Results showed that CE significantly increased maximal oxygen uptake (VO Conclusions: CE significantly increases CRF in BCS and improves most cardiometabolic health-related outcomes. In addition, there will be a need for many larger RCTs to explore the effects of CE on inflammatory biomarkers in BCS.
