Effect of nursing intervention via a chatting tool on the rehabilitation of patients after Total hip Arthroplasty.
Article in Journal of orthopaedic surgery and research, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 papers.
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.
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
backgroundNursing intervention following discharge is a long-term rehabilitation process that is essential for improving hip joint function and quality of life in affected patients. This study aimed to assess the effect of nursing intervention via WeChat on the rehabilitation of patients after total hip arthroplasty (THA).
methodsWe conducted a retrospective analysis of 232 patients who underwent THA at our hospital from January 2013 to October 2015. Of the 232 patients, 114 received nursing intervention via telephone (Group A), and 118 received nursing intervention via WeChat (Group B). Furthermore, the Harris hip score and Short-Form 36 (SF-36) health survey score were used to evaluate hip joint function and quality of life in patients in the two groups at discharge and 1, 3 and 6 months following discharge. Moreover, the functional independence measure was applied to assess the recovery of joint function in the patients.
resultsNo significant difference was observed in the Harris hip score and the SF-36 health survey score between the two groups at discharge and 1 month following discharge (p > 0.05). However, the Harris hip score and SF-36 health survey score were lower in group A than in group B at 3 and 6 months following discharge (p < 0.05). Furthermore, no obvious difference was observed in terms of functional independence between the two groups at discharge (p > 0.05). However, more individuals were completely independent in group B than in group A at 1, 3 and 6 months following discharge (p < 0.05).
conclusionsNursing intervention via WeChat can improve the effect of rehabilitation after THA and promote the recovery of joint function in patients.
