1 · What the graph read from 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.

Abstract

Studies have shown that respiratory muscle training enhances functional capacity and pulmonary function in Fontan patients. However, diaphragm muscle characteristics in Fontan children have not been fully elucidated. The aim of this study was to compare respiratory function, maximal and submaximal functional capacities, and quality of life, as well as to assess diaphragm mobility and thickness, between Fontan patients aged 8 to 12 years and healthy individuals. This cross-sectional study included 45 children-27 Fontan patients, Fontan Group (FG) and 18 healthy control Group (CG) subjects. Different examinations were performed: spirometry was used to analyze pulmonary volume and capacity; manovacuometry was used to determine respiratory muscle strength; chest ultrasound was used to determine diaphragm muscle characteristics; cardiopulmonary exercise and the six-minute walk test (6MWT) were used to determine functional capacity; the AUQEI questionnaire was used to determine quality of life. Descriptive analysis and intergroup comparisons were performed for all the data. Compared with the CG, the FG exhibited impaired pulmonary function and reduced functional capacity. Significant differences in median values were noted for forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV
