Psychocardiology-based nursing intervention enhances self-efficacy in elderly patients with angina pectoris.
Article in American journal of translational research, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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 assess the effect of psychocardiology-based nursing intervention on cardiac function and self-efficacy in elderly patients with angina pectoris.
methodsA total of 127 elderly patients with angina pectoris admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University from December 2022 to December 2023 were divided into two groups: the control group (n=63) received routine nursing care, while the observation group (n=64) received psychocardiology-based nursing intervention in addition to routine care. The psychological status, self-efficacy, cardiac function, and severity of angina were compared between the two groups before and after intervention.
resultsAfter intervention, Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA) and Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD) scores significantly decreased in both groups compared to pre-intervention levels (both P<0.05), with the observation group showing a more pronounced reduction (both P<0.05). The left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) increased significantly in both groups post-intervention (P<0.05), while left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVEDD) and left ventricular wall thickness (LVWT) showed no significant changes (both P>0.05). Self-efficacy scores significantly improved in both groups post-intervention (P<0.05), with a greater increase observed in the observation group (P<0.05). Additionally, all dimensions of the Seattle Angina Questionnaire (SAQ) showed significant improvement in both groups post-intervention (P<0.05), with higher scores in the observation group compared to the control group (P<0.05).
conclusionPsychocardiology-based nursing intervention effectively improves psychological well-being, self-efficacy, quality of life, and cardiac function in elderly patients with angina pectoris.
