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

Objective: Continuing care, which is an extension of post-discharge care, is recognized as a crucial element of high-quality health services and is essential to patients. This systematic review aims to identify the effectiveness of continuing care for patients with stomas. Methods: PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Trial Register and Web of Science databases were searched. Study selection and quality appraisal were performed independently by two reviewers. We calculated the mean differences (MD) or the relative risk (RR) with 95% confidence intervals and assessed heterogeneity. Results: Nine studies (1134 participants) met the inclusion criteria. This meta-analysis revealed that, in the continuous care group, the stoma self-efficacy (MD ​= ​6.46; 95% CI ​= ​3.81-9.11; Conclusions: Continuing care showed beneficial effects in improving health outcomes and care satisfaction for patients with stomas compared with routine care. We proposed an integrated continuing care program with different elements and recommendations for its implementation.
