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 Internet-based multidisciplinary continuity care on the quality of life of home-based patients with PICC catheters for malignant tumors.
methodThis study is a retrospective research analysis. A total of 131 patients with malignant tumors who received PICC catheterization at Xijing Hospital from Jan. 2023 to Dec. 2023 were enrolled in this study. Patients were divided into two groups: 61 in the control group who received conventional nursing care, and 70 in the observation group who received multidisciplinary continuous nursing care via an Internet platform in addition to conventional nursing. The Strategies Used by Patients to Promote Health (C-SUPPH), the Quality-of-Life Core Questionnaire (QLQ-C30), the Exercise of Self-care Agency Scale (ESCA), Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS) and Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) were adopted for investigation and analysis. Six months after intervention, the two groups' ego-efficacy, living quality, self-care ability and psychological status, as well as treatment compliance and satisfaction with care were compared.
resultsPost-intervention, both groups showed significant improvements in ego-efficacy and self-care ability scores (all P<0.05). The observation group scored higher in all dimensions of ego-efficacy and self-care ability compared to the control group (all P<0.05). Furthermore, the observation group demonstrated significant improvements across all dimensions of quality of life (P<0.05), whereas the control group only showed improvement in social function (P<0.05). The observation group also exhibited lower scores for anxiety and depression post-intervention compared to the control group (all P<0.05). Additionally, the observation group had a significantly lower incidence of complications and higher post-intervention treatment compliance and satisfaction with nursing (P<0.05).
conclusionMultidisciplinary continuing nursing care delivered via an Internet platform significantly enhances self-management efficiency, quality of life, and self-care ability of home-based patients with PICC catheters for malignant tumors. This care model also effectively improves patients' mental health and increases their compliance with treatment and satisfaction with nursing.
