Effect of neuromuscular electrical stimulation combined with respiratory rehabilitation training on pulmonary rehabilitation in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
Article in Journal of cardiothoracic surgery, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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
objectivethe study aimed to analyze the therapeutic effects of neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) combined with respiratory muscle training (RMT) on patients with moderate-to-severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
methods135 patients with moderate/severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease were selected as the research object and randomly selected. 72 cases were divided into rehabilitation group and 63 cases in control group. 63 healthy individuals who underwent physical examination in the same period were also included in the internal control group (blank group). Data on pulmonary function parameters (FEV
resultsfollowing intervention, PaO
conclusionNMES and pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) exercise training can visibly improve the lung function, oxygenation capacity, carbon dioxide exhalation, and quality of life (QoL) in COPD patients, effectively alleviating anxiety and depression.
