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

introductionLung cancer thoracoscopic postoperative wound complications bring great pain and inconvenience to patients.

methodsTo provide clinical nurses with a more scientific and effective nursing plan, this study evaluated the effect of refined nursing on wound complications after thoracoscopic surgery for lung cancer. Two-hundred thirty patients undergoing thoracoscopic radical resection for lung cancer were randomly divided into two groups according to the random number table method. The study group received refined nursing intervention (115 cases), and the control group received routine nursing intervention (115 cases). The effects of the two groups' nursing modes on the wound complications (pleural effusion, incision infection, lung leakage, and wound bleeding) after thoracoscopic surgery for lung cancer were compared.

resultsAccording to the study results, the study group experienced a shorter intraoperative blood loss, lower extubation time, shorter hospital stay, and lower wound complication rate than the control group (p < 0.05). Compared to the control group, the study group had significantly lower Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA), Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD) and visual analog scale (VAS) scores, and higher the short form 36 health survey questionnaire (SF-36) scores (p < 0.05).

conclusionCompared with the control group, the implementation of refined nursing intervention for patients with thoracoscopic radical resection of lung cancer has fewer postoperative wound complications and can improve patients' nursing satisfaction and quality of life, which is worthy of clinical promotion and application.
