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

backgroundThis trial evaluated the combined effect of yoga and camelina sativa powder (CSP) on glycemic indices, inflammatory and oxidative stress parameters in women with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).

methodsIn this trial, 80 patients with T2DM were randomly allocated into four groups: group 1 (placebo), group 2 (receiving CSP), group 3 (doing yoga), and group 4 (receiving CSP and doing yoga) for 8 weeks. Glycemic indices, inflammatory and oxidative stress parameters were assessed pre-and post-intervention.

resultsCSP plus yoga treatment significantly increased the McAuley-index and Quick-index compared to the placebo group (P = 0.021 and P < 0.001, respectively). A significant decrease in the glycemic exposure (GE) index (P = 0.010), fasting blood sugar (FBS) (P = 0.003), hemoglobin A1c (P = 0.013), insulin (P = 0.002), and homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) (P < 0.001) was found in the CSP plus yoga group compared to the placebo after adjustment for confounders. Serum superoxide dismutase level significantly increased in camelina, yoga, and both CSP plus yoga groups compared to the placebo group (P < 0.001, P = 0.019, and P = 0.005, respectively). Serum catalase levels increased significantly in CSP plus yoga group compared to the placebo following 8 weeks (P = 0.022). Malondialdehyde concentration declined significantly in yoga and CSP plus yoga groups compared to placebo (P = 0.017 and P < 0.001, respectively). Serum tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) level significantly decreased in CSP, yoga, and combined CSP plus yoga groups compared with the placebo group (P < 0.001, P = 0.033, and P < 0.001, respectively).

conclusionWe found a favorable effect of co-treatment of CSP and yoga for 8 weeks in women with T2DM on some glycemic indices, oxidative stress, and inflammatory parameters. The combined effect of yoga and camelina sativa powder on glycemic indices, inflammation, and oxidative stress.
