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

objectiveComplications frequently occur in patients with breast cancer after surgery. Anesthesia nursing plays an important role in decreasing complications for such patients. Thus, this study investigated the effects of anesthesia with intensive care nursing (AICN) on complication rates in patients with breast cancer after surgery.

methodsEighty-two patients with breast cancer were recruited in this study. Complications were compared between the anesthesia with usual nursing care (AUCN) and AICN groups.

resultsThe results demonstrated that AICN decreased the rates of incision infection, drug extravasation, and catheter exposure, as well as pain and inflammation scores, compared with the findings in the AUCN group. AICN improved the time to orientation and decreased the incidence of nausea, anxiety, depression, and vomiting versus AUCN. In addition, AICN shortened the time to awakening after anesthesia compared with the effects of AUCN. Furthermore, AICN shortened hospital stay and increased survival rates. Notably, AICN improved health-related quality of life as measured using the EORTC QLQ-C30 questionnaire.

conclusionAICN provided more benefits and better postoperative outcomes than AUCN, suggesting its utility for minimizing complications in patients with breast cancer after surgery.
