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

Ashwagandha ( Withania somnifera ) is a well-known adaptogen with established roles in stress modulation and physical performance enhancement traditionally. Low dose Ashwagandha (LDA/Ashwa.30) is a bioactive-optimized root-only extract standardized to withanolides (> 15% w/w) and an ATP-active fraction (> 15% w/w). This study investigated the efficacy and safety of LDA supplementation on cardiorespiratory fitness and exercise-induced fatigue in healthy individuals. In this eight-week, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study, healthy adults received either LDA (30 mg/day) or placebo. VO
