A Retrospective Observational Study Examining Physical Activity Among Adults in the United States With Angina or Coronary Heart Disease.
Article in Cureus, 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
introductionCoronary heart disease (CHD) involves inadequate blood supply to the myocardium by the coronary arteries due to the formation of atherosclerotic plaque in the vessel lumen. It has a complex etiopathogenesis. Physical activity (PA) and exercise lead to vascular remodeling and improved endothelial function, which, in turn, improves the arterial blood supply to the myocardium.
objectivesThe study aims to determine the prevalence of self-reported PA among CHD patients in the United States based on demographic, socioeconomic, and healthcare access variables for the year 2021. METHODOLOGY: The data for the study on CHD were extracted using the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) Web-Enabled Analysis Tool database of the U.S. POPULATION: The control variables used broadly include demographics, socioeconomic, and healthcare access.
resultsIn 2021, 433,615 people in the USA participated in the BRFSS study. Among them, 22,819 self-identified as having angina or CHD. In the past month, 62.2% of participants with the disease were involved in PA, and 37.8% were not. Among participants without angina or CHD, 76.5% were involved, and 23.5% were not involved in PA in the past month.
conclusionThis study highlights the need for specific interventions to overcome obstacles preventing PA among CHD patients.
