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.

Abstract
backgroundOsteo-articular pain (OAP) is experienced by approximately 50% of women under hormonal therapy (HT) for breast cancer (BC), which increases the risk for therapy discontinuation. This study was aimed to assess benefits of yoga practice combined with patient education (PE) for at-home practice by evaluating feasibility among BC patients under HT and measuring OAP, flexibility and satisfaction.
methodsFeasibility was evaluated by patient adherence as accomplishment of at least 4 out of 6 supervised yoga-PE sessions along with 70% or more at-home yoga sessions. Intervention (12 weeks) included two 6-weeks periods: P1 comprising one 90-minutes supervised yoga-PE session/week and 15-minutes daily at-home yoga and P2, daily autonomous at-home yoga sessions. Evaluations (at inclusion and by the end of each period) consisted in assessment of OAP on Visual Analog Scale (VAS), forward flexibility (cm) and patient satisfaction on Likert (0-10 points) scale.
resultsBetween September 2018 and May 2019 we included 24 patients of median 53 years (range 36-72). Feasibility was validated by 83% successful adherence rate. Pain was significantly reduced from median VAS of 6 [range 4-10] to 4 [range 0-7] at the end of both P1 and P2 (
conclusionCombined physiotherapy-yoga-PE intervention is a feasible strategy to increase at-home yoga practice with potential benefit on pain, flexibility, and satisfaction, thus prompting further evaluations in larger randomized multicenter trials. CLINICALTRIALS.GOV: NCT04001751.
