The Most Recent European and American Guidelines on Cardiac Rehabilitation: A Lack of Focus on Diaphragm Training.
Article in Cureus, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the leading causes of death and morbidity worldwide. Patients with vascular and cardiac conditions undergo cardiac rehabilitation (CR), a process that may begin before surgery (less frequently), after invasive procedures, or as part of chronic disease management, with durations varying by healthcare facilities or national policies. CR is a valuable non-pharmacological intervention that supports patient health and the resumption of daily activities. These rehabilitation programmes are strongly recommended for cardiac patients and are structured according to guidelines from organisations such as the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) and the American Heart Association/American Association of Cardiovascular and Pulmonary Rehabilitation (AHA/AACPR). This editorial reviews the latest ESC and AHA/AACPR guidelines, emphasising physical activities such as endurance and resistance training, while highlighting the lack of detail on inspiratory muscle training (IMT). The editorial reiterates the Italian Association of Cardiovascular Rehabilitation (AIRC) proposals regarding IMT and calls for further clinical trials.
