Article in Scientific reports, 2025. 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
Children with multiple disabilities have developmental issues in psychological domains. Adaptive yoga tailored to individual abilities promises positive results on children with special needs. This study applies multiple baseline single-case experimental design (SCED) to establish functional relationship between yoga and psychological health of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and intellectual disability (ID). A multiple baseline SCED (AB1B2), with phases (A) baseline without intervention, (B1) intervention in the institute with a yoga teacher and caregiver, and (B2) intervention at home with the caregiver. The experiment was replicated across six children aged 7-12 years with mild ASD and ID. The study assessed the impact of a 180-day adaptive yoga intervention on twelve parameters across cognitive, behavioural, and emotional domains. Assessments were administered using the Indian Scale for Assessment of Autism (ISAA) and Behavioural Assessment Scales for Indian Children with Mental Retardation (BASIC-MR) tools. The study involved caregivers, yoga teacher, and clinical psychologists. The visual analysis established the functional effect of yoga intervention. The effectiveness of impact was supplemented by percentages of non-overlapping pairs and Cohen's d shows moderate to significant impact among all the participants in at least three instances across psychological domains. The experiment establishes both internal and external validity.Trial registration CTRI/2021/08/035389; DoR: 04/08/2021.
