Sexual and Cardiovascular health.Factors Influencing on the Quality of Sexual Life of Coronary Heart Disease Patients - a Narrative Review.
Review in Vascular health and risk management, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Regular sexual activity is comparable to moderate exercise and may be safe for patients with cardiovascular disease (CVD). According to the recommendations of the Princeton III Conference (P3), people with a low risk of adverse cardiac events can undertake sexual activity safely, while other patients must first stabilise their cardiovascular status. Exercise testing is recommended to assess the safety of sexual activity in people with questionable or uncertain cardiac risk (P3). Patients after successful and uncomplicated treatment of myocardial infarction (MI) can return to sexual activity after 3 weeks if the stress test is negative. The 4th Princeton Conference (P4) recommends the use of the 2019 regimen developed by the American College of Cardiology (ACC) and American Heart Association (AHA) to assess the risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) in men with ED (ACC/AHA ASCVD 2019). Sexual health education plays an important role in the successful return to safe sexual activity, which should include post-MI patients and their relatives. The responsibility for counselling lies with cardiologists, general practitioner (GP) and nursing staff. Sexual rehabilitation should be an integral part of cardiac rehabilitation, and lifestyle modification and optimal treatment of underlying medical conditions are key to maintaining psychophysical well-being and a successful sex life.
