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

Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a progressive condition associated with reduced physical activity and impaired quality of life. While exercise training is now recognised as a safe and beneficial adjunct to PH management, opportunities for supervised programmes remain limited. There is a growing need for person-centred, acceptable interventions that enable patients to engage safely and meaningfully in physical activity within their own environment. The aim of this study was to explore the lived experiences of individuals with PH who participated in a 10-week, home-based exercise programme, and to evaluate its acceptability, utility, and perceived impact. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with participants (
