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

BACKGROUND/

objectivesViniyoga is a person-centered approach to yoga that emphasizes individualized adaptation of breath, movement, and meditative practices to support health and well-being. This qualitative study investigates the therapeutic goals of one-to-one Viniyoga from the perspective of experienced therapists.

methodsFourteen certified Viniyoga practitioners participated in in-depth interviews, which were analyzed using Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA). This study details how Viniyoga therapists define therapeutic Viniyoga.

resultsThe findings identify three core therapeutic goals that guide Viniyoga therapy: restoring balance, cultivating self-regulation, and guiding transformation. Two case studies are presented to illustrate the application of these goals in clinical contexts.

conclusionsQualitative information provided by the interviewed Viniyoga therapists supports the positive role of individualized Viniyoga therapy in contributing to sustainable healing and supporting clients' return to balance, self-regulation, and personal transformation. The Viniyoga therapeutic model is applicable across diverse populations and in a variety of integrative and complementary healthcare settings.
