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

backgroundRadical prostatectomy is a treatment for prostate cancer (PC), but most patients suffer urinary incontinence, decreased urinary control function, and poor prognoses after the surgery. Specific nursing intervention is a nursing model based on the patients' individual conditions and disease progression.

objectiveTo investigate the effects of specific nursing intervention on the urinary control functions and self-efficacy of radical prostatectomy patients.

methodsFrom April 1, 2016 to June 30, 2019, 149 patients who underwent radical prostatectomies in our hospital were retrospectively selected for this observational study and assigned to two groups in accordance with the different nursing intervention method each patient underwent. Seventy-six patients who underwent specific nursing intervention were included in the observation group (OG), and 73 patients who underwent routine nursing intervention were included in the control group (CG). The clinical symptoms, the urodynamic indexes, the recoveries of urinary control function, the incidences of urinary incontinence, and the complications were observed in both groups. The Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) and Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS) scores were used to evaluate the unhealthy emotions. The self-efficacy scale (GSES) and SF-36 were used to evaluate the self-efficacy and the quality of life (QOL), respectively.

resultsAfter the nursing, the improvement in the clinical symptoms in the OG was significantly better than it was in CG. The improvement in the postoperative urodynamic indexes in the OG was significantly better than it was in the CG. The recovery of urinary control function in the OG was significantly higher than it was in the CG. The incidence of urinary incontinence in OG was significantly lower than it was in the CG. The incidence of complications in the OG was significantly lower than it was in the CG. The SAS and SDS scores in the OG were significantly lower than they were in the CG. After the intervention, the patients' GSES and SF-36 scores in the OG were significantly higher than they were in the CG.

conclusionSpecific nursing intervention can ameliorate the urinary control functions and self-efficacy, reduce unhealthy emotions, and improve the QOL of radical prostatectomy patients.
