Effect of alternate nostril breathing on evoked potentials among internet addicts.
Article in Bioinformation, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Increased availability of smartphones and easy access to the internet among adolescents has resulted in Internet Addiction (IA). Effects of IA and Pranayama on evoked potential are available but studies on the comparison of immediate and 6-week effects of alternate nostril breathing on evoked potentials among medicos with internet addiction are not available as per our search in PubMed, hence the study was chosen. In this comparative study 100 male and female medical students aged between 18-25 years, with internet addiction scores ≥ 50 were included as study participants. P300 auditory event-related potential and pattern reversal visual evoked potential (VEP) were recorded before, immediately, and 6 weeks after practicing pranayama. Repeated measure ANOVA shows statistically significant change (P<0.05) in P300 amplitude, P100 latency, N145 latency, and VEP amplitude. The post hoc Bonferroni test shows that P100 latency and N145 latency significantly reduced immediately after 15 minutes of pranayama. P300 amplitude and VEP amplitude significantly increased only after practicing pranayama for 6 weeks. Pranayama has an immediate effect on latency, but it takes 6 weeks of practice to significantly change amplitude.
