Application of evidence-based nursing in patients after cataract surgery and its impacts on visual acuity recovery and psychological status.
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 2 papers.
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 probe into the evidence-based nursing in patients after cataract surgery and its impact on their visual acuity recovery and psychological status.
methodsNinety-seven patients with cataract who underwent surgery in our hospital were randomly divided into control group (n=48, receiving conventional nursing) and observation group (n=49, receiving evidence-based nursing) for a prospective study. Postoperative visual acuity recovery, incidence of complications, recurrence rate within 1 year, psychological status before and after surgery and quality of life were compared between the two groups.
resultsThe best corrected visual acuity of the affected eye of patients at 3 and 6 months after surgery in both groups was significantly higher than that before surgery, with the best corrected visual acuity of the same period in the observation group higher than that in the control group (all P<0.05). The incidence of postoperative complications and recurrence rate within 1 year in the observation group were lower than those in the control group (all P<0.05). Three months after operation, the scores of Hamilton Anxiety Scale and Hamilton Depression Scale in the two groups were lower than those before operation, with the scores in the observation group lower than those in the control group (all P<0.05); and the scores of all items in Generic Quality of Life Inventory in the two groups were higher than those before operation, with the scores in the observation group higher than those in the control group (all P<0.05).
conclusionEvidence-based nursing for patients after cataract surgery can significantly improve the recovery of patients' postoperative visual acuity, reduce the incidence of postoperative complications as well as the recurrence rate. It also helps to improve the adverse psychological status of patients and their postoperative quality of life.
