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

objectivesTo explore the effects of specialized nursing intervention based on quantitative evaluation strategy on the psychological state and quality of life of senile dementia patients.

methods92 senile dementia patients were divided into the control and intervention groups (n = 46 each). Control group was given routine nursing intervention, while intervention group was given specialized nursing intervention based on the quantitative evaluation strategy. Patients' self-care ability, cognitive function, nursing compliance, psychological state, quality of life, and patient satisfaction indexes were measured.

resultsAfter nursing interventions, the self-care ability (71.73 ± 4.31 vs 63.82 ± 3.97 points) and cognitive functions such as orientation (7.96 ± 1.02 vs 6.53 ± 1.15), memory (2.16 ± 0.39 vs 1.69 ± 0.31), visual-spatial copying (3.78 ± 0.53 vs 3.02 ± 0.65), language skills (7.49 ± 1.26 vs 6.05 ± 1.28), and recall ability (2.13 ± 0.26 vs 1.75 ± 0.28) were significantly improved in the intervention group compared to the control group (P ˂ 0.05). The patient's compliance in the intervention group (95.65%) was prominently higher than the control group (80.43%) (P < 0.05). Notably, patient's psychological state (anxiety and depression) in the intervention group (47.42 ± 3.12 vs 51.39 ± 3.16, 48.52 ± 2.51 vs 52.83 ± 2.49) was better than the control group (P < 0.05). Furthermore, the quality of life was significantly improved in the intervention group (88.11 ± 1.11 vs 71.52 ± 1.24) compared to the control group (P < 0.05). Also, patients' satisfaction with nursing services in the intervention group (97.83%) was higher than the control group (78.26%) (P < 0.05).

conclusionsSpecialized nursing intervention based on quantitative evaluation strategy can effectively improve patients' self-care ability, and cognitive function, reduce anxiety and depression and enhance the quality of life, which is worthy of clinical promotion and application.
