Investigation of the involvement of platelet-activating factor in the control of hypertension by aerobic training. A randomized controlled 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
Although studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of exercise in controlling systemic arterial hypertension (SAH), the mechanisms involved in this effect are still poorly understood. Thus, this study investigated the impact of aerobic training on the relationship between platelet-activating factor (PAF) circulating levels and blood pressure in hypertensives. Seventy-seven hypertensive subjects were enrolled in this randomized controlled trial (age 66.51 ± 7.53 years, body mass 76.17 ± 14.19 kg). Participants were randomized to two groups: the intervention group (IG, n = 36), composed of hypertensive individuals submitted to an aerobic training protocol, and the control group (CG, n = 41), composed of non-exercised hypertensives. Body mass index, arterial blood pressure, quality of life, respiratory muscle strength, and functional capacity were assessed before and after 12 weeks. PAF and plasma cytokine levels were also evaluated respectively by liquid chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Aerobic training promoted a significant reduction in blood pressure while functional capacity, expiratory muscle strength, and quality of life, PAFC16:0 and PAFC18:1 plasma levels were increased in comparison to the CG (p < 0.05). In addition, multiple correlation analysis indicated a positive correlation [F (3.19) = 6.322; p = 0.001; R
