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

Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) is still a global health issue, and millions of HIV-positive people are afflicted with various physical, psychological, and social impacts. Antiretroviral therapy (ART) has also increased survival and viral suppression but individuals living with HIV (PLWH) still experience chronic inflammation, psychiatric issues, tiredness, and stigma. Practice of yoga using physical postures, breath regulation, and meditation has been used as an adjunct treatment of HIV. This review article discusses the function of Yoga in enhanced quality of life, immune capability, and affective hardiness in PLWH.
