Managements for perioperative anxiety in patients with gastrointestinal cancers.
Review in Frontiers in psychiatry, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Gastrointestinal (GI) cancers are the most common malignancies, while surgical intervention remains the sole therapeutic approach offering the possibility of a definite cure for cancer. Perioperative anxiety negatively impacts the recovery of GI cancers. Recently, mounting studies have demonstrated that proper nursing interventions may alleviative perioperative anxious illnesses in patients with GI cancers. We conducted a first comprehensive review to summarize all the current evidence on this topic. After a systematically search in the six common databases, eighteen relevant studies were included for further analysis. The present review highlighted that there is a high prevalence of perioperative anxiety in patients with GI cancers (e.g., colorectal cancer, gastric/stomach cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma, gallbladder cancer, and esophageal cancer), while specific nursing interventions are the reliable methods to reduce postoperative anxiety. These nursing strategies include, but are not limited to, therapeutic listening intervention, implementing perioperative music, predictive nursing, progressive relaxation exercises, psychological interventions in the nursing care, comprehensive nursing, continuous nursing care, video-based nursing education, multidisciplinary cooperative continuous care, accelerated rehabilitation nursing, TCM nursing, evidence-based early warning nursing, target nursing care, and high-quality nursing. Since several limitations existed in the eligible studies as well as in this review, a well-designed multicenter RCT with large sample size is still warranted for the confirmation of nursing intervention for managing perioperative anxiety in patients with GI cancers. Also, future studies should focus on the long-term effects of relevant interventions, specific patient populations, multidisciplinary approaches, technological innovations, and educational programs.
