Impact of stoma on lifestyle and health-related quality of life in patients living with stoma: A cross-sectional study.
Article in Journal of education and health promotion, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 18 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
introductionA person with colostomy or ileostomy undergoes a comprehensive treatment with a wide range of adjustments which affect the individual's social and psychological functioning. Quality of life (QOL) is a subjective feeling which includes physical, social, psychological, and spiritual domains of an individual that can be affected by a stoma.
aimThis study is aimed at identifying the QOL and impact of stoma on their lifestyle pattern among ostomates attending stoma outpatient department of gastroenterology department of a government tertiary care center in South India during 2018.
methodsA descriptive study using a cross-sectional survey design was conducted among 55 ostomates, following consecutive sampling technique. The data were collected using a City of Hope QOL Questionnaire for Ostomy patients which had QOL Assessment Questions from four subdomains including physical, psychological, social, and spiritual aspects. This tool also had open-ended questions on lifestyle assessment components.
results63.6% of the participants had colostomy; 72.7% of the stomas were due to cancer. The mean QOL score of the participants was 4.13 ± 1.07. The ostomates scored relatively well in both physical (5.68 ± 1.76) and spiritual (4.32 ± 1.36) domains, but the sociological (2.85 ± 1.3) domain score was very low. Permanent ostomates scored significantly higher than the temporary ostomates (
conclusionThe QOL score of ostomates was less than the scores reported in the Western population and living with stoma significantly alters their lifestyle. Therefore, follow-up services and counseling services to the ostomates by the health-care professionals are needed.
