Respiration-related guidance and nursing can improve the respiratory function and living ability of elderly patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.

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
objectiveTo determine the effect of respiration-related guidance and nursing on the respiratory function and living ability in elderly patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
methodsA total of 157 elderly patients with COPD admitted to our hospital between June 2016 and November 2019 were enrolled, and assigned into two groups according to difference nursing intervention methods. Among them, 72 cases were intervened by routine nursing as a control group (con group) and the rest 85 intervened by respiration-related guidance and nursing as a research group (res group). The two groups were compared in pulmonary and respiratory function indexes, and dyspnea, activities of daily living (ADL), Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI), and MOS 36-Item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36) scores before and after intervention as well as the nursing satisfaction after intervention.
resultsAfter nursing intervention, compared with the con group, the res group showed significantly higher pulmonary function indexes (forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1), forced vital capacity (FVC), and FEV1/FVC) and greatly improved respiratory function indexes (arterial carbondioxide partial pressure (PaCO
conclusionFor elderly patients with COPD, respiration-related guidance and nursing can enhance their pulmonary function and respiratory function, relieve their dyspnea and sleep disorder, and improve their daily living ability, life quality and nursing satisfaction.
