The effect of Omaha System-based continuous nursing care on the psychological status, self-esteem, and quality of life in epileptic children.

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
objectivesThis study explored and analyzed the effect of Omaha System-based continual nursing care on the psychological status, self-esteem and quality of life in epileptic children.
methods127 epileptic children hospitalized from March 2018 to September 2019 were recruited as the study cohort and stochastically divided into an observation group (n=65) and a control group (n=62). The control group children were given regular out-of-hospital guidance after discharge, and the observation-group were treated with Omaha System-based continuous nursing intervention in addition to the routine out-of-hospital guidance the control group underwent. The two groups' psychological statuses, self-esteem, sense of defect, and quality of life were compared both pre- and post-intervention.
resultsThe SAS and SDS scores in the two groups after the intervention were significantly lower than their pre-intervention scores (P<0.05), and the scores in the observation group after the intervention were evidently lower than the scores in the control group (P<0.05). The two groups' post-intervention SES and FIS scores were significantly higher than their pre-intervention scores (P<0.05), and the scores in the observation group were notably lower than the scores in the control group (P<0.05). The post-intervention quality of life scores in the two groups were dramatically higher than the pre-intervention scores (P<0.05), and the quality of life scores in the observation group were notably higher than the quality of life scores in the control group (P<0.05).
conclusionThe Omaha System-based continual nursing care can efficaciously elevate the psychological status of children with epilepsy, improve their self-esteem, reduce their sense of self-defect, and contribute to the improvement of their quality of life, so it is worthy of clinical promotion and application.
