Internet-enhanced continuity of care reduces postoperative complications and improves outcomes in pediatric strabismus surgery.
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. 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
objectiveTo explore the application value of Internet Family Engagement Continuum of Care in strabismus ambulatory surgery and evaluate its impact on postoperative complications, children's quality of life, and parental satisfaction.
methodsA retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 257 children who underwent strabismus ambulatory surgery in our hospital from February 2022 to December 2023. The children were divided into a control group (n=149), which received routine nursing services and telephone follow-up, and an observation group (n=108), which received Internet Family Engagement Continuum of Care through a mobile medical platform. Evaluations were conducted using the Chinese versions of the Empowerment of Parents in The Intensive Care (EMPATIC-30), Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory 4.0 (PedsQLTM 4.0), Children's Depression Inventory (CDI), and Multidimensional Anxiety Scale for Children (MASC).
resultsThe observation group showed significantly better outcomes in postoperative VAS scores, PedsQLTM scores, CDI scores, and MASC scores compared to the control group (all P<0.001). The readmission rate in the observation group (10.19%) was significantly lower than in the control group (22.82%) (P=0.009). Parents with children in the observation group scored significantly higher on all dimensions of the EMPATIC-30 compared to those in the control group (all P<0.0001). The incidence of complications was significantly lower in the observation group (6.48%) compared to the control group (18.79%) (P=0.005). Multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that the intervention program and surgical time were independent risk factors affecting postoperative complications.
conclusionInternet Family Engagement Continuum of Care significantly reduces the incidence of postoperative complications in children undergoing strabismus ambulatory surgery, improves the quality of life and mental health of the children, and enhances parental satisfaction and engagement.
