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

The present study aims to critically analyze the effects of yogic interventions on dyslipidemia compared with distinct control conditions. We systematically searched the relevant randomized controlled trials published from January 2001 to January 2025 in electronic databases such as PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and the Cochrane Library. Additionally, we conducted a manual search in a peer-reviewed journal. We used a random-effects model based on the inverse variance method to calculate weighted mean differences. We also assessed the risk of bias, heterogeneity, sensitivity analysis, and reporting bias. A total of 58 records were included in this systematic review, and 53 were considered for meta-analysis. In the group analysis, yoga was compared to control (no intervention), walking/aerobic exercise, and dietary restriction groups, respectively. As a result of the overall comparison between groups, people practicing yoga showed lower levels of total cholesterol (MD: -10.99, 95% CI: -15.19 to -6.78, I2 = 97%,
