Effect of Reiki therapy on quality of life among adolescents.
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
Adolescents with cancer face numerous challenges that impair their quality of life (QoL), including physical discomfort, emotional stress and disruptions to normal development. Therefore, it is of interest to study the impact of Reiki therapy on QoL among adolescents aged 13-17 years with cancer in Gujarat, India. A quasi-experimental pre-test and post-test control group design was employed with 92 participants, equally divided into experimental and control groups. Quality of life was assessed using the WHOQOL-100 tool. Post-intervention results demonstrated a significant improvement in the experimental group's QoL (Mean difference = 13.9, p < 0.001), while the control group showed minimal change. Thus, the potential of Reiki therapy as an effective intervention to enhance the QoL of adolescents undergoing cancer treatment is highlighted.
