High-intensity interval training versus moderate-intensity continuous training on exercise capacity and health-related quality of life in patients with coronary artery disease: An updated systematic review and meta-analysis.
Synthesis in Brazilian journal of physical therapy. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundDespite the well-known positive effects of exercise in patients with coronary artery disease, the best exercise training protocol is still under discussion.
objectiveWe performed a systematic review and a meta-analysis to investigate the effects of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) versus moderate-intensity continuous training (MICT) on exercise capacity and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in patients with coronary artery disease.
methodsWe searched MEDLINE/PubMed, the Cochrane Library EMBASE, and the PEDro database for randomized controlled trials that evaluated the effects of HIIT versus MICT. Mean difference and 95 % confidence intervals (CI) were calculated.
results27 studies, with 1454 patients, met the eligibility criteria. Twenty-four studies with 1259 patients assessed peak oxygen consumption (VO
conclusionsOur meta-analysis showed low-quality evidence that HIIT training was more effective than MICT for improving VO
