1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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 aimed to explore the impacts of comfort nursing on postoperative quality of life, negative emotions and nursing satisfaction of patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery.

methodsEighty-four patients who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) in Shengjing Hospital of China Medical University from September 2018 to November 2019 were analyzed retrospectively. Among them, 37 patients with routine nursing were assigned to the control group, while 47 patients receiving comfort nursing were assigned to the research group. The postoperative rehabilitation indexes, complication rate, pain degree at 12 h after surgery, postoperative quality of life, negative emotions and nursing satisfaction were compared between the two groups.

resultsAfter nursing, compared with the control group, the research group experienced notably earlier first time of food intake, first defecation time, first time for ambulation, first anal exhaust time, and recovery time of gurgling sound, shorter length of stay, considerably lower incidence of postoperative complications and Visual Analogue Scale score at 12 h after surgery, and evidently higher scores of quality of life and nursing satisfaction. Moreover, Self-rating Depression Scale and Self-rating Anxiety Scale scores of the research group were significantly lower than those of the control group.

conclusionFor patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery, comfort nursing can relieve their negative emotions, improve their quality of life and nursing satisfaction, reduce postoperative pain, and thus promote postoperative rehabilitation. Hence, it is worthy of clinical promotion.
