Exploring the relationship between Ayurgenomics and bio-psycho-social symptoms in cancer care.

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
backgroundAyurveda, the ancient Indian system of medicine, emphasises the role of individual constitution in health. Modern Ayurgenomics integrates Ayurvedic principles with genomic analysis, aiming to personalize Yogic interventions for cancer patients.
objectiveThe current study aims to explore the intersection of Ayurgenomics, dehaprakriti, and Yoga Therapy in the context of medical oncology.
methodThe study included 60 chemotherapy patients, with their dehaprakriti assessed using AyuSoft. Patients' symptoms were diagnosed with the Rotterdam Symptom Checklist (RSCL). The data was analyzed to observe any correlation between Prakriti type and chemotherapy response.
resultsVatapradhan types show high physical impairment (38.96) but retain functionality (13.83). Pittapradhan types have minimal physical burden (24.05) but high psychological strain (13.00) with a positive life outlook. Kapha-dominant types experience moderate physical (27.78-34.61) and psychological burdens (9.69-12.12) and slower disease progression. Major findings revealed that vata-dominant patients required more immediate intervention due to rapid tumor growth, while pitta-dominant patients were more susceptible to chemotherapy side effects. Patients with kaphaprakriti showed slower tumor growth. Appropriate Yogic interventions and dietary adjustments may help manage the loss of vitality during chemotherapy.
conclusionThe study highlights the growing relevance of integrating traditional Eastern wisdom, such as Ayurveda, with Western scientific approaches to personalize cancer care. Integrating Prakriti-based Yogic interventions may alleviate the physical and psychological impact of cancer and its treatments, enhancing the overall quality of life for patients.
