Effect of targeted nursing intervention plus psychological counseling on quality of life, negative emotions, and complications in patients with extensively drug-resistant tuberculosis.
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 5 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
purposeTo evaluate the effects of targeted nursing intervention plus psychological counseling on the life quality, negative emotions, and complications in patients with extensively drug-resistant tuberculosis (XDR-TB).
methodsIn this prospective study, 88 patients with XDR-TB admitted to Hebei Chest Hospital from Jan 2017 to Dec 2020 were enrolled. All patients were grouped according to RANDBETWEEN (1, 2) function in Excel, assigning 1 to the control group (n=41) for every 2 in the research group (n=44). The control group received routine nursing, while the research group received targeted nursing intervention plus psychological counseling. The self-rating anxiety scale (SAS) score, self-rating depression scale (SDS) score, self-management ability score, treatment compliance, sputum negative conversion rate, re-examination rate, life quality, complications, and nursing satisfaction of the two groups were compared before and after intervention.
resultsAfter intervention, the research group had significantly higher SAS, SDS, self-management ability scores, compliance rate, sputum negative conversion rate, re-examination rate, and life quality compared to the control group (all P<0.05). The research group showed a lower incidence of complications and higher nursing satisfaction than the control group (both P<0.05).
conclusionCompared to routine nursing, targeted nursing intervention combined with psychological counseling substantially ameliorates the life quality and negative emotions of patients with XDR-TB and lowers the incidence of complications.
