Effect of yoga and music on depression among antenatal Indian women.
Article in Bioinformation, 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
Antenatal depression is a growing concern affecting maternal and fetal health, often left untreated due to stigma and limited resources. Therefore, it is of interest to evaluate the effectiveness of yoga and music therapy in reducing depression among pregnant women in urban Gujarat. Hence, a total of 180 antenatal women were assigned to either a yoga group (2-week intervention) or a music group (1-week intervention). Depression levels were assessed pre- and post-intervention using the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale. The yoga group showed a significant reduction in depression scores (p < 0.001), while the music group showed a slight but non-significant improvement (p = 0.369). Results show that yoga is more effective than music in alleviating depressive symptoms during pregnancy.
