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

Background: Acquired brain injury (ABI) is associated with chronic physical, cognitive, emotional, and social impairments requiring long-term rehabilitation. Adaptive yoga is an evidence-based intervention that may address these needs; however, implementation remains limited. Thus, determinants of engagement must be translated into actionable, theory-informed implementation strategies. This study aimed to (1) identify determinants of engagement in adaptive yoga for individuals with ABI using the Theoretical Domains Framework (TDF), and (2) operationalize these determinants into mechanisms and implementation strategies. Methods: We conducted an implementation mapping study using qualitative data from participants ( Results: Qualitative data mapped to 12 TDF domains. Knowledge and Environmental Context and Resources represented barriers related to communication, scheduling, and navigation. Skills, Social Influences, Emotion, and Beliefs about Capabilities facilitated engagement. Determinants influenced engagement through three inter-related mechanisms: (1) adequately trained personnel, (2) adaptable yet structured program delivery, and (3) socially driven group processes. These mechanisms reflect capability, opportunity, and motivation-related processes through which 12 ERIC implementation strategies are expected to act. Conclusions: Engagement in adaptive yoga for individuals with ABI is shaped by inter-related mechanisms rather than isolated determinants. Linking determinants, mechanisms, and strategies provides a theory-informed pathway for intervention refinement and future hybrid effectiveness-implementation testing.
