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
objectiveTo evaluate the impact of combining action research theory with focus-solving short-term psychotherapy on the psychological stress, adjustment, and rehabilitation of patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
methodsBetween January 2022 and January 2023, a prospective study was conducted involving 300 AMI patients at Union Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology. Participants were divided into a control group and a study group, with 150 patients in each. The control group received standard treatment and rehabilitation guidance, while the study group also received interventions based on action research theory and focus-solving short-term psychotherapy. Outcomes measured included scores from the Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA), Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD), Mental Health Inventory (MHI), National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS), Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA), Essential Skills for Caregivers Assessment (ESCA), and patient satisfaction. Prognostic factors were also analyzed.
resultsPost-intervention, the study group demonstrated significantly lower scores in HAMA and HAMD and reported less psychological pain, alongside higher scores in psychological well-being, compared to the control group (all P < 0.05). Additionally, the study group showed improved neurological function (NIHSS scores) and motor skills (FMA scores) as well as enhanced self-care abilities (higher ESCA scores) (all P < 0.05). Patient satisfaction was also notably higher in the study group (P < 0.05). Key prognostic factors included history of diabetes, Killip classification, and door-to-balloon (DTB) time.
conclusionThe integration of action research theory with focus-solving short-term psychotherapy significantly alleviated anxiety and depression in AMI patients post-PCI, enhanced their psychological adjustment, and facilitated the recovery of neurological and motor functions. This approach also improved self-care capabilities. Effective management of underlying conditions, vigilant monitoring of Killip classification, and minimization of DTB time are critical to reducing major adverse cardiac events and improving patient outcomes.
