A comprehensive discharge planning program on fatigue and functional status of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma undergoing transarterial chemoembolization: A randomized clinical controlled trial.

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
Background: Post transarterial chemoembolization (post-TACE) causes side effects that impact patients, which leads to fatigue symptoms and reduced functional status. However, unrelieved fatigue and reduced functional status may cause patients to withdraw from treatment and negatively affect their lives. Unfortunately, the patients post-TACE only receive routine medical care at the hospital but no follow-up and continuity of care back home. Therefore, comprehensive discharge planning for these problems is necessary. Objective: This study examined the effectiveness of the comprehensive discharge planning program on fatigue and functional status of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma undergoing transarterial chemoembolization. Methods: A randomized clinical controlled trial was used. Fifty-two patients who met the study criteria were randomly assigned to an experimental group ( Results: The mean scores for fatigue at 30 days after treatment between the experimental and control groups were significantly different ( Conclusion: The comprehensive discharge planning program effectively reduces fatigue symptoms and enhances the functional status in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma undergoing transarterial chemoembolization. Therefore, the comprehensive discharge planning program can be used by nurses and multidisciplinary teams in order to achieve the effectiveness of nursing care for patients.
