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

Adolescence is a developmental phase marked by significant stress, which can negatively impact mental and physical well-being. Therefore, it is of interest to evaluate the effectiveness of breathing exercises as a stress management strategy for adolescents. The research involved 40 adolescents (aged 14-15 years) from schools in Tiruchirappalli, using the Modified Stress Scale for pretest and posttest data. Results showed a significant reduction in stress levels, with a paired t-test value of 8.1294 and a p-value of 0.0001. Thus, breathing exercises are an effective and accessible strategy for reducing stress in adolescents, addressing a gap in adolescent stress management methods.
