Ungraded means an effect was reported without a GRADE rating; it is not a gap. No studies means the review found nothing to answer the question. The six categories are a display order, not a score.

Non‐invasive ventilation during exercise training versus exercise training alone or exercise training with sham non‐invasive ventilation for people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
Population: people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
| Outcome | Effect | Evidence | Status / GRADE |
|---|---|---|---|
Exercise capacity: percentage change in peak work rate Incremental cycle or incremental treadmill test Non‐invasive ventilation during exercise training vs exercise training alone or exercise training with sham non‐invasive ventilation | no estimate extracted | 3 studies · 60 participants | Low Downgraded: risk of bias, imprecision |
Exercise capacity: percentage change constant work rate endurance time Constant work rate cycle endurance test Non‐invasive ventilation during exercise training vs exercise training alone or exercise training with sham non‐invasive ventilation | no estimate extracted | 2 studies · 48 participants | Low Downgraded: risk of bias, imprecision |
