Adjuvant melatonin therapy during exercise prescription in breast cancer survivors on physical and anthropometric parameters, quality of life, and hormonal response. A randomized controlled trial.
Article in Frontiers in sports and active living, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map.

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.

Abstract
Background: Breast cancer has a high prevalence in women during the last years of their life. Exercise is instrumental during this recovery period. Nevertheless, little is known about the effects of combining nutritional supplements with physical activity. Therefore, this study aims to examine the impact of melatonin in conjunction with physical activity in breast cancer survivors (BCS). Methods: Participants were postmenopausal women (60-75 years old) who had been diagnosed with stage I-III breast cancer 5 years ago and had received chemotherapy or radiotherapy. Participants were randomly assigned to two groups: experimental group (MEL) ( Results: After 10 weeks, both groups showed a non-significant decrease ( Conclusions: Melatonin supplementation (6 mg/day) for 10 weeks, combined with a physical activity program, had not significant ( Clinical Trial Registration: Clinical Trials.gov, identifier (NCT06696378).
