Cardiorespiratory Fitness in the Prevention and Management of Cardiovascular Disease.
Review in Reviews in cardiovascular medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 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
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death among adults in the U.S. and elsewhere. Variation in the presence, severity, and control of major modifiable risk factors accounts for much of the variation in CVD rates worldwide. Cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) reflects the integration of ventilation, circulation, and metabolism for the delivery and utilization of oxygen in support of dynamic aerobic physical activity. The gold standard measure of CRF is maximal oxygen uptake. Because the primary factor underlying differences in this measure between individuals is maximal cardiac output, it can serve as a clinical indicator of cardiac function. Higher CRF is associated with favorable levels of major CVD risk factors, lower prevalence and severity of subclinical atherosclerosis, and lower risks of developing both primary and secondary clinical CVD events. The beneficial associations between CRF and CVD are seen in women and men, older and younger adults, in those with multiple coexisting risk factors or prior diagnosis of CVD. Exercise training and regular physical activity of at least moderate intensities and volumes improves CRF in adults, and improvements in CRF are associated with lower risks of subsequent CVD and mortality. Routine assessment of CRF in primary care settings could enhance individual-level CVD risk assessment and thereby guide implementation of appropriate measures to prevent future clinical events.
