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

objectiveThis study aims to investigate the impact of noise reduction nursing in ward on patients who underwent intracranial aneurysm embolization.

methodsBetween April 2020 and March 2021, Funan County People's Hospital implemented standard nursing care for patients who underwent intracranial aneurysm embolization, comprising 55 patients admitted during this period, constituting the control group. Subsequently, from April 2021 to March 2022, the hospital introduced noise reduction nursing measures in wards. A total of 65 patients admitted during this period were included in the study group. Data on noise levels, emotional states, and sleep statuses were collected from both groups. The comprehensive impact of noise reduction nursing on the mental and physical health of patients who underwent intracranial aneurysm embolization was evaluated.

resultsBefore propensity score matching (PSM), significant differences were observed in age and intracranial aneurysm diameter between the two groups (P < 0.05). However, following PSM, a total of 102 patients were included in the analysis, and no significant differences in baseline data were observed between the two groups (P > 0.05). The noise level in the study group's ward was significantly lower than that in the control group (P < 0.05). In addition, post-management, the study group exhibited lower Self-rating Anxiety Scale scores and total scores of Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index compared with the control group. Moreover, the Glasgow Coma Scale score was higher in the study group, demonstrating statistical significance (P < 0.05).

conclusionThe implementation of noise reduction nursing in wards effectively controls ward noise levels and improves negative mood and sleep quality among patients who underwent intracranial aneurysm embolization. These findings indicate that noise reduction nursing facilitates postoperative rehabilitation and enhances patient outcomes.
