Acknowledgements

The review authors would like to thank Professor Clive E Adams for the opportunity to perform this series of reviews and for his advice throughout, as well as the staff of the Cochrane Schizophrenia Group Editorial Base, particularly Claire Irving, for their support in the writing of the protocol and review. The Cochrane Schizophrenia Group Editorial Base in Nottingham, UK, produces and maintains standard text for use in the Methods section of their reviews, and the review authors have used this text as the basis for what appears here, adapting it as required. The review authors have also used and adapted their previous description of yoga, first published in 'Yoga versus standard care for schizophrenia' (Broderick 2015). This review is part of a series of reviews (Table 1) to populate an overview. As such, there is some consistency between reviews to streamline content for the forthcoming overview.

The review authors would also like to thank the Information Scientist of the Cochrane Schizophrenia Group, Farhad Shokraneh, who developed the search strategy.

We would also like to thank and acknowledge Genevieve Gariepy for peer reviewing this version of the review.

Parts of this review were drafted using RevMan HAL v 4.2. You can find more information about RevMan HAL here.

Yoga versus non‐standard care for schizophrenia

Protocol

Julie Broderick, Niall Crumlish, Alice Waugh, Davy Vancampfort

https://doi.org/10.1002/14651858.CD012052

Differences between protocol and review

Renaming of non‐standard care intervention from Non‐standard care or approaches (in addition to standard care) to Non‐standard care: We have removed the 'in addition to standard care' to clarify that both interventions would be 'in addition to standard care', and to keep the interventions the same as the published title.

Some updating of the text in the methods section to reflect changes in Schizophrenia Group's methods template.

Changing of wording of outcomes from 'clinically significant response' to 'clinically important change' in line with current Schizophrenia Group template. Specified outcomes in the 'Summary of findings' table should be 'clinically important'.

As no relapse data were available, we presented 'relapse' as a blank row in the 'Summary of findings' table but added 'leaving the study early' data. This was not prespecified in our protocol.

El uso y la enseñanza del modelo PICO están muy extendidos en el ámbito de la atención sanitaria basada en la evidencia para formular preguntas y estrategias de búsqueda y para caracterizar estudios o metanálisis clínicos. PICO son las siglas en inglés de cuatro posibles componentes de una pregunta de investigación: paciente, población o problema; intervención; comparación; desenlace (outcome).

Table 3. Design of a future study

Methods

Allocation: randomised (clearly described).
Blinding: single‐blind (outcomes assessor).
Duration: minimum 1 year.
Design: parallel.
Setting: outpatient and inpatient settings.

Participants

Diagnosis: people with a clinical diagnosis of schizophrenia.
History: from waiting list and referred to research staff.
N=300.
Age: > 18 years.
Sex: males and females.
Inclusion criteria: .age 18 years or greater.
Exclusion criteria: presence of physical disability or illness which precludes participation in yoga intervention.

Interventions

1. Yoga: the yoga intervention should be clearly described and consist of the following components; (i) shithileekarana vyayama (loosening exercises) for approximately 10 minutes (ii) yoga postures (asanas) for approximately 20 minutes (iii) breathing exercises and relaxation techniques for approximately 20 minutes using a manualised protocol, yoga programme for 12 weeks, 3 times weekly, follow‐up at 6 months and 1 year, yoga delivered by a trained yoga instructor, meditation not included.

2. Standard care control*.

All groups stable pharmacotherapy.

Outcomes

Mental state (binary outcomes).

Relapses (binary outcomes).

QOL (binary outcomes).

Disability (binary outcomes).

Activities of daily living (binary outcomes).

Costs: cost of services, cost of care.

Adverse events related to yoga (number and type of injuries).

Service outcomes: days in hospital, time attending outpatient psychiatric clinic.

Notes

Adherence should be logged with patients expected to adhere to 70% to 75% of scheduled sessions.

* Regarding design of a future study, readers are directed to the first yoga review in this series (Broderick 2015) ‐ as a comprehensive yoga versus standard care study has not yet been published, this would be the initial priority. When this is conducted, many legitimate active comparators to yoga could be suggested; such as, but not limited to the following; yoga versus talking therapy, yoga versus expressive therapies, yoga versus other forms of exercise such as Tai'chi.

*This list of specific interventions is not exhaustive and merely provides some examples of legitimate active comparators to yoga which are not currently available. These interventions could also be considered alternatively. For instance, exercise consists of heterogeneous interventions, it is accepted there could be other equally justifiable intervention titles such as 'supervised' exercise, 'non‐supervised exercise', or 'group‐based exercise', 'individual exercise', or exercise could be considered in terms of intensity such as 'high intensity', 'moderate intensity' and 'low intensity'. Note the specific intervention should be delivered by suitably qualified personnel.

*The basis for the assumed risk (e.g. the median control group risk across studies) is provided in footnotes. The corresponding risk (and its 95% confidence interval) is based on the assumed risk in the comparison group and the relative effect of the intervention (and its 95% CI).
CI: Confidence interval; RR: Risk ratio;

GRADE Working Group grades of evidence
High quality: Further research is very unlikely to change our confidence in the estimate of effect.
Moderate quality: Further research is likely to have an important impact on our confidence in the estimate of effect and may change the estimate.
Low quality: Further research is very likely to have an important impact on our confidence in the estimate of effect and is likely to change the estimate.
Very low quality: We are very uncertain about the estimate.

CI: confidence interval; RR: risk ratio

1 Moderate risk approximates to that of non‐standard care in trial(s).
2 Imprecision: Downgraded two levels due to small sample size and substantial loss to follow‐up which was uneven between groups (40.5% non‐standard care, 17% yoga)

3 Imprecision: Downgraded one level due to small sample size
4 Indirect: Downgraded one level as no trial reported binary data and review authors had to use one of 2 sub‐measures.
5 Indirect:Downgraded one level as unclear of clinical meaning of scores from 4 to 26.
6 Indirect:Downgraded two levels as no trial reported binary data and reviewers had to use one of 2 sub‐sets.

7 Imprecision: Downgraded one level as based on one study with no reported adverse events.

8 Risk of bias: Downgraded one level as a number of participants withdrew from one trial and it was not clear to which group they were randomised.
