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

backgroundAcute gastrointestinal bleeding (GIB) is a common surgical emergency digestive system disorder with high morbidity and mortality.

aimThis study sought to explore effects of evidence-based nursing practice (ENP) procedures on stress state, coagulation function, complications in patients with upper GIB (UGIB) and quantify of life in emergency department.

methodsThis study was a retrospective analysis and a total of 120 patients with UGIB were enrolled and divided into an experimental group with ENP interventions and a reference group with traditional nursing according to different nursing programs. The physiological stress indicators (epinephrine, norepinephrine, plasma cortisol), psychological stress indicators [anxiety self-assessment scale (SAS), depression self-assessment scale (SDS)], coagulation function indicators [prothrombin time (PT), prothrombin time (TT), D-dimer (D-D), fibrinogen (FIB)], complication rate and quality of life were analyzed.

resultsAfter nursing intervention, epinephrine, norepinephrine and plasma cortisol, SDS and SAS scores were decreased in the experimental group relative to the reference group (all P < 0.001). After nursing intervention, the levels of PT, TT and D-D in both groups were lower and the FIB was higher than before intervention (all P < 0.001), and the improvement of coagulation function indexes in experimental group after nursing was better than that in reference group (P < 0.001). The incidence of complications in the experimental group was lower than that in the reference group (P = 0.04). The higher quality of life scores after nursing intervention was validated in the experimental group relative to the reference group (P < 0.001).

conclusionENP improved stress response, coagulation function, quality of life, and reduced incidence of complications in UGIB patients, indicating potential for clinical application.
