Exercise related versus non exercise related out of hospital cardiac arrest - A retrospective single-center study.
Article in Resuscitation plus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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: Physical activity prevents cardiovascular disease, but it may also trigger acute cardiac events like sudden cardiac death in patients with underlying heart disease. The chance of surviving an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest remains low, despite improving medical treatment and rescue chain. Prior studies signaled increased survival in exercise related out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the differences between exercise related out-of-hospital cardiac arrest and out-of-hospital cardiac arrest during daily activity in an urban setting. Methods: Retrospective analysis of all out-of-hospital cardiac arrests from 2014 to 2021 treated at a cardiac arrest center of a tertiary hospital. The primary outcome was survival to discharge. Secondary outcomes included differences in pre-hospital care, in-hospital treatment, hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy, and laboratory parameters. Results: 478 OHCA patients were reviewed of which 432 patients (exercise related 36 (8.4%) vs. daily activity 396 (91.6%)) were included in the analysis. Patients suffering an exercise related arrest were younger (57 vs 65 years, Conclusion: Based on this observational data from a highly selected group of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest patients treated at a cardiac arrest center, patients suffering an exercise related out-of-hospital cardiac arrest, differed in substantial characteristics and in the first line response compared to daily activity out-of-hospital cardiac arrest patients. The better survival to discharge of the exercise related out-of-hospital cardiac arrest group might be driven by these beneficial differences. This study underlines the need for public awareness for the importance of a fast first response and a broad distribution of automated external defibrillators in public sport areas since most of the exercise related out-of-hospital cardiac arrest patients presented with a cardiac cause and an initial shockable rhythm.
