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

backgroundCoronary Heart Disease (CHD) is one of the most prevalent chronic diseases worldwide. Currently, percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with stent implantation is the main clinical treatment for CHD, and patients can achieve better outcomes after stenting. However, adverse cardiovascular events continue to recur, ultimately failing to yield good results. Several symptoms exist after stenting and are associated with health outcomes. Little is known about the symptom patterns of patients during the different postoperative periods. Therefore, this study aims to explore the dynamics of symptoms and clarify the experiences of post-stenting in patients during different periods, which may help the delivery of more specific patient management and improve survival outcomes in the future.

methodsA mixed method (quantitative/qualitative) design will be adopted. Longitudinal research, including surveys regarding three different periods, will be sued to describe the symptom patterns of patients undergoing PCI with stent implantation, clarifying their focused symptom problems during different time periods or in populations with different features. Qualitative individual interviews aim to understand the feelings, experiences, opinions, and health conditions of patients post-stenting, which can explain and supplement quantitative data. Quantitative data will be analyzed using descriptive statistics, latent class analysis (LCA), and latent translation analysis (LTA). Qualitative data will be analyzed using content analysis. DISCUSSION: This study is the first study to explore the symptom patterns and experiences of patients in various domains after stent implantation using a novel design including quantitative and qualitative methods, which will help the delivery of more specific patient management, reduce the recurrence of adverse cardiovascular events, and improve survival outcomes in the future. It is also meaningful to use PROMIS profile-57 to help patients to proactively focus on their health problems, promote health literacy, and incorporate active patient participation into health management, which is a successful transition from passive medical treatment to active management.
