Comparable Improvements in Heart Rate Recovery Following Short-Term High-Intensity and Moderate-Intensity Interval Training in Patients with Cardiovascular Disease.

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
Objective: Heart rate recovery (HRR) is a validated prognostic marker in cardiovascular disease (CVD). This study evaluated and compared the effects of 4-week high-intensity interval training (HIIT) and moderate-intensity interval training (MIIT) on post-exercise HRR in patients with CVD. Methods: A total of 1,020 CVD patients undergoing cardiac rehabilitation (Jan 2021-May 2024) were screened, and 209 who completed 12 sessions and cardiopulmonary exercise tests were included (HIIT: 82; MIIT: 127). The mean ages were 55.2 (HIIT) and 52.9 years (MIIT), with females comprising 34.1% and 34.6%, respectively. The MIIT protocol included four 8-min cycling bouts (RPE 12-14) with 2-min active recovery, while HIIT involved 20-25 × 30-s high-intensity bouts (RPE 14-15) alternating with 30-s low-intensity recovery. Results: Both interventions significantly improved HRR (HIIT: 3.1±8.7 bpm, Conclusion: Both short-term HIIT and MIIT comparably enhance HRR in patients with CVD, highlighting the clinical applicability of interval training as an efficient option for patients with limited time availability. However, the retrospective design limits causal inference and requires confirmation in future studies.
