Effect of internet-based self-management on pulmonary function rehabilitation and living quality in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
Article in American journal of translational research, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
objectiveThis study explored and analyzed the effect of Internet-based self-management on pulmonary function rehabilitation and living quality in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
methodsAltogether, 106 stable-staged COPD patients admitted to our hospital from June 2018 to September 2019 were enrolled as the research subjects, and divided into the control group (n=51) and the observation group (n=55) according to the order of visit. The control group received conventional health education, and the observation group was treated with an educational model by Internet-based self-management. Afterwards, the changes of self-management ability, pulmonary function and living quality before and after intervention were compared between the two groups.
resultsThe scores of each dimension of self-management behavior in both groups of patients after intervention were critically higher than those prior to intervention (
conclusionInternet-based self-management can effectually improve the self-management ability of COPD patients. It is conducive to improve the patients' pulmonary function, and their living quality, thus it is worthy of clinical popularization and application.
