Effects of different intensity of resistance exercise on shoulder function and immune function in young and middle-aged postoperative breast cancer patients: a randomized control trial.

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
purposeThis study aimed to investigate the effects of different intensities of resistance exercise on shoulder function and immune response in young and middle-aged breast cancer patients after surgery.
methodsA total of 114 patients who underwent modified radical mastectomy for breast cancer at Tangshan People's Hospital from July 2023 to July 2024 were randomly assigned to three groups: the control group (routine nursing), intervention group 1 (routine care + low-intensity resistance exercise), and intervention group 2 (routine care + moderate-to-high intensity resistance exercise). Shoulder function was assessed using the Constant-Murley Score (CMS), and immune markers (perforin, granzyme B, and perforin/granzyme B activity) were evaluated at baseline, post-intervention, and at a 3-month follow-up.
resultsPrior to intervention, no significant differences in shoulder function or immune markers were observed across the groups (P > 0.05). Post-intervention and at the 3-month follow-up, intervention group 2 showed significant improvements in joint mobility, pain, muscle strength, total CMS scores, and immune markers compared to both the control and intervention group 1 (P < 0.001). Intervention group 1 demonstrated improvements in immune markers only at the 3-month follow-up compared to the control group (P < 0.001).
conclusionResistance exercise is an effective rehabilitation strategy for improving shoulder function and immune response in young and middle-aged breast cancer patients after surgery. Moderate-to-high intensity resistance exercise yields superior benefits and should be considered in clinical rehabilitation protocols.
