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

Mind sound resonance technique (MSRT) is a yoga-based relaxation practice that incorporates mantra chanting and relaxation techniques. It is designed to address psychosomatic disorders by harmonizing the Manomaya Kosha and regulating autonomic nervous system (ANS) functions. This narrative review examines the effects of MSRT on various health parameters, including its ability to alleviate stress, anxiety, and chronic pain; promote better sleep; enhance cognitive, cardiovascular, and lung functions; and reduce smoking behavior. A review of 21 clinical studies, including randomized controlled trials (RCTs), quasi-experimental studies, pre-post analyses, and case studies, assessed the therapeutic outcomes of MSRT. The studies were sourced from Google Scholar, PubMed, and PubMed Central. MSRT demonstrated significant reductions in anxiety, stress, and chronic pain, along with improved sleep quality, cognitive performance, and autonomic balance. It showed beneficial effects on cardiovascular health, including lowered blood pressure and heart rate, and enhanced respiratory function. MSRT was effective in promoting mindfulness, emotion regulation, and smoking cessation. Its physiological effects include modulation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis and ANS. MSRT is a holistic, noninvasive intervention with potential for managing psychosomatic disorders and promoting overall health. Further RCTs are warranted to explore its long-term efficacy and underlying mechanisms.
