Inflammatory and Fibrosis Parameters Predicting CPET Performance in Males with Recent Elective PCI for Chronic Coronary Syndrome.

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
Functional capacity (FC), ideally determined by a cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPET), is a valuable prognostic marker in chronic coronary syndrome (CCS). As CPET has limited availability, biomarkers of inflammation and/or fibrosis could help predict diminished FC. Our objective was to assess the value of galectin-3 (gal-3) and that of three inflammatory markers easily obtained from a complete blood count (NLR (neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio), PLR (platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio) and MLR (monocyte-to-lymphocyte ratio) in predicting diminished FC in males with recent elective percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for CCS. Our prospective study enrolled 90 males who had undergone elective PCI in the previous 3 months (mean age 60.39 ± 10.39 years) referred to a cardiovascular rehabilitation (CR) clinic between February 2023 and December 2024. All subjects received clinical examination, a cardiopulmonary stress test, transthoracic echocardiography and bloodwork. Based on percentage of predicted oxygen uptake (%VO2max), patients were classified in two subgroups-impaired FC (≤70%,
