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.

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.

Abstract

Objectives: To investigate the effects of a 12 weeks yoga program three times a week for one hour on blood pressure and sexual life among hypertensive women. Methods: This study was a pre-post test randomized controlled trial (NCT06319365) performed in accordance with the CONSORT guidelines. This study was conducted in a public hospital in Turkey between June 15, 2022 and October 30, 2022. Data were collected by blood pressure measurements, Personal Information Form and Arizona Sexual Experience Scale. The sessions of the yoga group were conducted online for one hour three days a week for 12 weeks. The control group did not receive any intervention during the study. No side effects were recorded throughout the study. Results: Participants in the yoga group had significantly lower systolic and diastolic blood pressure compared to the control group (p<0.001). In addition, women in the yoga group showed significant improvements in sexual activity, arousal, orgasm, lubrication and overall sexual function (p<0.05). Conclusion: A 12-week, three times a week yoga program reduced blood pressure and positively affected sexual functioning.
