Yoga as an Adjuvant therapy in management of migraine- An open label randomised trial.
Article in Journal of family medicine and primary care, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Introduction: Drug treatment is not very satisfactory in migraine and is associated with adverse effects. The effect of yoga as an add-on therapy in migraine was evaluated in the present study. Methods: Patients between the age of 18 and 60 years suffering from migraine were recruited from Internal Medicine and Neurology OPD. Migraine was diagnosed according to the International Headache Society, International Classification of Headache Disorders-3 Statistical Analysis: Independent t test and Mann-Whitney U Test (Wilcoxon rank-sum test) were used for comparing normally and non-normally distributed endpoint outcomes after treatment (AT). Results: Out of 170 patients screened, 75 were diagnosed with migraine and only 34 patients completed the study (17 in each group). All clinical and autonomic parameters showed significant improvement in pre- and post-intervention values in both groups ( Conclusion: We did not find any significant difference in the clinical outcome by adding yoga therapy to conventional therapy, except reduction in VAS score and reduction in heart rate variability.
