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

Background: Determine whether true exercise-associated interindividual response differences (IIRD) occur in cardiorespiratory fitness as a result of exercise-based cardiac rehabilitation in heart transplant patients. Methods: Using data from a recent (2023) meta-analysis of 9 randomized controlled trials representing 296 patients (163 exercise, 133 control), an aggregate data meta-analysis of treatment effects (change outcome differences between exercise and control groups) was conducted as well as an IIRD meta-analysis using the inverse variance heterogeneity model. The primary outcome was cardiorespiratory fitness (VO Results: Statistically significant and clinically important increases equivalent to 14.5% were observed for VO Conclusions: While exercise-based cardiac rehabilitation increases VO
