Effects of regular exercise on blood rheology.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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 physical activity (RPA) promotes cardiovascular health but its effects on blood flow and rheology characteristics remain unclear. This study compared hemorheological parameters between healthy adults who regularly jogged (n = 35) and sedentary controls (n = 35). Participants in the RPA group showed significantly lower fibrinogen levels, C-reactive protein concentrations, blood viscosity, plasma viscosity, and red blood cell aggregation (all p < 0.05). They also had higher hematocrit and albumin concentrations. Blood viscosity decreased by around 30% (native) and 49% (hematocrit-adjusted) in active individuals. These findings suggest regular jogging improves blood flow, potentially protecting against cardiovascular diseases.
