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

Introduction: Despite yoga's benefits and popularity, there is concern for racial inequities in yoga access and participation that have not been empirically studied at the population level. Against this background, the objective of this study was to examine the geographic distribution of major chain yoga franchises in relation to racialized Black-White economic segregation across the U.S. Methods: The authors extracted census tracts and 5-digit ZIP codes (ZIP5) for >500 major chain yoga franchises in the U.S. and estimated the Index of Concentration at the Extremes (ICE Results: Study findings revealed that <10% of studios were situated in census tracts and ZIP5s with a proportion of Black residents exceeding 13%. Less than 25% of studios were situated in census tracts and ZIP5s with household incomes below the 2022 national median ($74,580). Across all census tracts and ZIP5s, the mean value for ICE Conclusions: Major yoga franchises are situated in census tracts and ZIP codes that fall within the highest quintile of racialized Black-White economic segregation in the U.S.
