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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundAllogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-SCT) is an efficacious treatment for hematologic malignancies but can be complicated by cardiac dysfunction and exercise intolerance impacting quality of life and longevity. We conducted a randomized controlled trial testing whether a multicomponent activity intervention could attenuate reductions in cardiorespiratory fitness and exercise cardiac function (co-primary end points) in adults undergoing allo-SCT.

methodsSixty-two adults scheduled for allo-SCT were randomized to a 4-month activity program (activity; n=30) or usual care (UC; n=32). Activity comprised a multicomponent exercise training (3 days.week

resultsFifty-two participants (84%) completed follow-up (25 activity and 27 UC); median (interquartile range [IQR]) adherence to the activity program was 74% (41%-96%). There was a marked decline in [Formula: see text] in the UC program (-3.4 mL‧kg

conclusionsIntervening during and after allo-SCT with a multicomponent activity program during and after allo-SCT is beneficial for preserving a patient's cardiorespiratory fitness and exercise cardiac function. These results may have important implications for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality after allo-SCT. REGISTRATION: URL: https://anzctr.org.au/; Unique identifier: ACTRN12619000741189.
