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

Mindfulness-based interventions are increasingly recognized for their positive impact on children's physical, mental, emotional, and behavioral health. However, no mindfulness-based lifestyle interventions have focused on improving both the physical and mental well-being of economically marginalized preschoolers. Therefore, this one-group study aimed to examine feasibility, acceptability, and satisfaction of a 5-week mindfulness-based lifestyle intervention among preschoolers, caregivers, and childcare teachers. Caregiver-preschooler dyads were recruited from one urban and one rural Head Start childcare center. Outcome data were collected at baseline only, while evaluation data were obtained following the intervention. The intervention included three components: a school-based mindful eating and movement learning for preschoolers; a home-based caregiver training on mindful eating, movement, and parenting; and a school learning and home practice connection in mindfulness. Nineteen preschoolers, 18 caregivers, and three teachers participated. The enrollment rate was 40.4%. Attrition was 0% among preschoolers and 5.6% ( Supplementary Information: The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s12310-025-09767-w.
