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

This study aims to investigate the impact of yoga practice on pulmonary and respiratory functions in clinical populations. A thorough search was carried out in the Cochrane Library, PubMed, Science Direct databases, and Google Scholar, using the keywords "Yog∗" and "pulmonary functions", covering the period from January 2010 to December 2022. Studies that aligned with PRISMA recommendations were included. The Cochrane risk-assessment tool was employed to assess bias risk. We calculated weighted mean differences (WMDs) with 95 % confidence intervals (CIs) and used the I
