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

backgroundThis study examined the effects of yoga-based educational interventions on the volume and composition of breast milk in premature infants' mothers admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). MATERIALS AND

methodsA randomized controlled trial was conducted on 78 primiparous mothers whose premature infants were less than 34 weeks and were hospitalized in the NICU of Ayatollah Rouhani Hospital from February 2021 to November 2022. Mothers were assigned to a control group and an experimental group, that is, yoga, using the block randomization method. Mothers in the experimental group performed yoga for 30 minutes under the supervision of a yoga therapist every morning for six consecutive days. The volume of the mother's milk was measured using an electric pump, while its composition was assessed using a spectrophotometer according to the instructions of the Pars Azmoun Standard Kit.

resultsThe results of the analysis on the remaining 76 samples showed a difference in the means of the volume of breast milk after the intervention with 11.39 and 33.84 ml for the control and yoga group, respectively.there was a significant difference between the amount of breast milk in the control and yoga groups (

conclusionsThe yoga technique is effective in increasing the volume of breast milk in mothers with premature infants. Therefore, it is recommended to increase the volume of breast milk in the NICU.
