A narrative review of exercise intervention mechanisms for post-traumatic stress disorder in veterans.
Review in Frontiers in public health, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) severely disrupts the daily lives of veterans and active duty personnel and may influence their suicidal behaviour. This study provides insight into existing research on PTSD in veterans through a narrative review. Exercise was found to reduce PTSD symptoms in veterans at both psychological and physiological levels, which in turn inhibits their suicidal tendencies. At the psychological level, exercise improved veterans' Subjective Well-Being and Psychological Well-Being, and at the physiological level, it improved veterans' brain structure, neuroendocrine system, and immune system. By combing these mechanisms in detail, we hope to provide theoretical support for the implementation of exercise interventions in the treatment of veterans with PTSD. However, it is important to note that the specifics of the exercise program, such as the optimal type, dosage, and duration to alleviate PTSD symptoms, remain unclear and require further research and exploration.
