Incidence and influencing factors of kinesiophobia in patients with chronic heart failure: a scoping review.
Article in Frontiers in psychology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Introduction: Kinesiophobia denotes an excessive and irrational apprehension towards physical activity or exercise among patients, stemming from a perception of susceptibility to painful injury or re-injury. Cardiac rehabilitation stands pivotal in the secondary prevention spectrum for individuals with cardiovascular ailments, with exercise constituting a cornerstone of this regimen. However, the emergence of kinesiophobia poses a formidable challenge, diminishing patient adherence to cardiac rehabilitation protocols, particularly among those grappling with chronic heart failure. To bolster exercise-based rehabilitation initiatives in this cohort, a thorough comprehension of the multifaceted factors precipitating kinesiophobia is imperative. This review endeavors to delineate prevailing evidence and prevalence concerning kinesiophobia triggers in chronic heart failure patients, while pinpointing research lacunae for future exploration. Methods: Employing a scoping review methodology, our investigation culled data from diverse scholarly databases, including Embase, PubMed, Scopus, CINAHL, Web of Science, Medline, Sinomed, CNKI, Wangfan, and VIP. Results: After thorough evaluation, 9 studies that met the inclusion criteria were ultimately incorporated. Discussion: Our findings underscore a notable prevalence of kinesiophobia in chronic heart failure patients, predominantly influenced by socio-demographic factors, psychological and cognitive factors, disease and treatment factors, as well as lifestyle and behavior. Armed with these insights, future interventions can be tailored to mitigate kinesiophobia levels, fostering enhanced engagement in exercise-centric cardiac rehabilitation endeavors among patients grappling with chronic heart failure.
