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

Purpose: This study aims to compare the regulatory effects of different dance styles (such as modern dance, Chinese classical dance, jazz dance, and ballet) on depressive mood, with a particular focus on their impact on the autonomic nervous system function (e.g., HRV indicators). The goal is to identify the most therapeutically promising form of dance intervention and provide more effective supplementary approaches for individuals experiencing depressive mood. Methods: This study involved screening 1,500 university students for Depressive mood out of a total of 10,784 students at the university (Anonymize) ( Results: Before the intervention, Heart Rate Variability (HRV) indicators showed no significant differences between groups ( Conclusion: Modern dance may, therefore, be more effective in promoting recovery for individuals with depressive mood than Chinese classical, ballet, or jazz dance.
