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

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of a single session of restorative yoga on the fatigue and in-the-moment reading skills of children who are Deaf and Hard of Hearing. Method: The study included nine children who are Deaf and Hard of Hearing between first and sixth grade. After completing two days of language and literacy assessments as part of a larger study, the participants self-reported fatigue and completed both subtests of the Test of Word Reading Efficiency-2 Results: Analyses revealed that the majority of participants experienced a decrease in fatigue post-yoga session, resulting in a small effect size. There was no effect noted for reading of sight words and nonwords read; however, the majority of participants read more nonwords post-yoga session than prior to the yoga session. Conclusion: Yoga has potential to positively impact levels of fatigue experienced by children who are Deaf and Hard of Hearing. Future research evaluating the effects of multiple sessions of yoga on the fatigue is needed.
