Analysis of the service needs of outpatients undergoing thyroid fine needle aspiration biopsy based on the Kano model.
Article in BMC nursing, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundThyroid nodules are common, and fine needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) is essential for diagnosis and treatment. Patients' service needs are rarely addressed and discussed. This study was to analyze the nursing service needs of patients undergoing outpatient thyroid FNAB.
methodsUsing the Delphi method, indicators of nursing service needs were established. A survey based on the Kano model was conducted from February to May 2024 to analyze service needs among patients undergoing thyroid FNAB. A quadrant analysis chart was used to visualize the impact of service characteristics on patient satisfaction.
resultsAmong the 32 service needs, 12 items were in the improved category, 10 items were in the advantage category, 9 items were in the reserved category, and 1 item was in the observation category.
conclusionsThe Kano model effectively categorizes the service needs of outpatients undergoing thyroid FNAB, guiding healthcare providers to enhance patient satisfaction through optimized services.
