Ayurvedic Interventions for Primary Insomnia in the Elderly: A Systematic Review of Clinical Evidence and Research Gaps.
Review in Global advances in integrative medicine and health. 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: Primary insomnia is a prevalent sleep disorder in the elderly, often overlooked in integrative care. Ayurveda defines insomnia as a Objective: To critically appraise clinical studies on Ayurvedic management of primary insomnia in elderly populations and identify methodological gaps. Methods: A systematic review utilized PubMed, DOAJ, DHARA, AYUSH Research Portal, and Google Scholar. Eligible studies included randomized controlled trials and case series, in English, focusing on Ayurvedic treatments for insomnia. Results: Eleven studies met inclusion criteria. Interventions comprised Conclusion: Ayurvedic therapies show promise for insomnia, but high-quality trials in elderly populations are scarce. Future research needs to focus on age-specific efficacy, standardized methodologies, and integration with contemporary care.
