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

backgroundCardiac rehabilitation (CR) leads to increased exercise capacity (VO

methodsFrom 1999 to 2017, all consecutive patients undergoing cardiopulmonary exercise testing before and after CR were included. Sex differences in peak exercise metrics in response to CR were compared. Multiple logistic regression models were fit to assess clinical predictors of VO

resultsA total of 513 men and 158 women were included. Men had greater increases in VO

conclusionsThese findings suggest that clinical predictors of VO
