Comparison of autonomic nervous system dysfunction, arterial stiffness, and heart rate recovery according to spinal cord injury level.

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
objectiveTo investigate the differences in autonomic nervous system (ANS) dysfunction, arterial stiffness, and the degree of delay in post-exercise heart rate recovery (HRR) according to the level of spinal cord injury (SCI), and propose preventive measures against cardiovascular diseases after SCI.
methodsThis retrospective study included 51 patients with SCI. Based on the neurological level of injury (NLI), patients were divided into two groups: Group A (NLI at and above T6) and Group B (NLI below T6). To assess ANS dysfunction, the head-up tilt test and 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring were conducted. Arterial stiffness was measured using the pulse wave velocity test. The exercise tolerance test was conducted to measure post-exercise HRR.
resultsGroup A had significantly higher values in the head-up tilt test and 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring. In the pulse wave velocity test, both sides (left and right) had significantly higher values in Group B. One minute after the exercise tolerance test, Group A had significantly slower HRR (18.8 ± 11.1 beats/minute) than Group B.
conclusionUnderstanding the impact of ANS dysfunction and arterial stiffness on HRR in SCI according to NLI may provide insights for clinical management and preventative strategies for cardiovascular diseases.
