Tai Chi as a public health intervention: effects on stress regulation, attention, and psychological resilience in adults.
Trial report in Frontiers in public health, 2026. 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
Background: Chronic psychological stress, impaired attentional functioning, and reduced psychological resilience represent major public health challenges among adults, contributing to adverse mental and physical health outcomes. Mind-body interventions have gained increasing attention as scalable, non-pharmacological strategies to address these interconnected domains. Tai Chi, a traditional Chinese mind-body practice characterized by slow movements, controlled breathing, and mindful attention, is particularly suitable for population-level implementation due to its low cost, accessibility, and adaptability. Methods: This randomized controlled trial evaluated the effects of an 8-week structured Tai Chi intervention on stress regulation, attention, and psychological resilience in adults aged 30-55 years. Sixty-eight participants were randomly assigned to either a Tai Chi intervention group (TCG, Results: All variables demonstrated normal distribution at baseline. Significant Group × Time interaction effects were observed for stress regulation (η Discussion: The findings provide robust evidence that Tai Chi is an effective and potentially scalable mind-body intervention for improving stress regulation, attentional performance, and psychological resilience in adults. The moderate-to-large effect sizes observed across outcomes highlight Tai Chi's potential as a holistic mind-body strategy for enhancing psychological wellbeing.
