Article in Health science reports, 2026. 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 and Aims: School-based yoga interventions may provide an opportunity to promote healthy behaviors among adolescents by improving yoga-related knowledge, motivation, and engagement in regular practice. However, evidence regarding changes in yoga-related behavioral outcomes following school-based interventions among Nepalese secondary school students remains unexplored. So, this study aims to evaluate whether a 4-week structured school-based yoga intervention changes yoga-related knowledge, behavioral intention to practice yoga, and self-reported yoga practice among secondary school students, compared with a non-intervention group. Methods: A quasi-experimental pre-post study used multistage random sampling to select one intervention school ( Results: Groups were comparable at baseline on ever-practiced status and intention ( Conclusion: A structured, instructor-led school yoga program can shift short-term yoga knowledge and intention in school settings; whether this translates into sustained practice or broader health benefits requires further study.
