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

Breathing exercises are widely used to alleviate anxiety, but most interventions use fixed templates of inhalation, exhalation, and repetition. This study preliminarily explores the feasibility of data-driven personalization of breathing recommendations for general individuals. We hypothesized that based on the characteristics of individual users, a data-driven method could give a feasible breathing intervention suggestion without the need of specialized hardware. A multilayer perceptron was trained on questionnaire responses to predict the inhalation, exhalation, and repetition times. The model stability was assessed using several independently trained models and exhibited high consistency with coefficients of variation below 10% across all outputs. A single-blind randomized study (
