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

The purpose of this investigation was to compare cardiac output (Qc) in paraplegic subjects (P) with wheelchair-confined control subjects (C) at high intensities of arm exercise. At low and moderate exercise intensity Qc was the same at a given oxygen uptake (VO2) in P and C. A group of 11 athletic male P with complete spinal-cord lesions between T6 and T12 and a group of 5 well-matched athletic male C performed maximal arm-cranking exercise and submaximal exercise at 50%, 70% and 80% of each individual's maximal power output (Wmax). Maximal VO2 (VO2max) was significantly lower, VO2max per kilogram body mass was equal and maximal heart rate (fc) was significantly higher in P compared to C. At VO2 of 1.3, 1.5 and 1.7 l.min-1, and for P 65%-90% of the VO2max, Qc was not significantly different between the groups, although, Qc in P was achieved with a significantly lower stroke volume (SV) and a significantly higher fc. Although the SV was lower in P, it followed the same pattern as SV in C during incremental exercise, i.e. an increase in SV until about 45% Wmax and thereafter a stable SV. The similar Qc at a given VO2 in both groups indicated that, even at high exercise intensities, circulation in P can be considered isokinetic with a complete compensation by fc for a lower SV.
