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

Purpose: To examine the effects of structured aerobic exercise on 24-hour mean blood glucose outcomes assessed by continuous glucose monitors in adults with type 2 diabetes. Methods: The study established specific inclusion and exclusion criteria and conducted a comprehensive search across five databases, including PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, Cochrane Library, and EBSCOhost from the start year of each database's coverage to 22 July 2024. The quality of the included studies was evaluated using the Cochrane Handbook 5.1 guidelines. Data analysis was performed using Review Manager 5.4 to determine effect sizes, conduct sensitivity analyses, assess potential biases, and perform subgroup analyses. Results: A total of 1,034 articles were retrieved, and after 4 rounds of screening, 13 articles were finally selected for meta-analysis. The study included 626 participants (30% female; mean ± SD: age, 59.4 ± 6.4 years; BMI, 29.61 ± 2.24 kg/m Conclusion: Aerobic exercise can improve the 24-hour mean blood glucose in patients with T2DM. Additionally, 20-60 min of aerobic exercise with moderate intensity, and high intensity can improve the 24-hour mean blood glucose in patients with T2DM who have a BMI greater than 29 kg/m Systematic Review Registration: https://www.crd.york.ac.uk/prospero/, identifer PROSPERO CRD42024590812.
