Influencing factors of health promotion behaviour in patients with aortic dissection: a qualitative study using the COM-B model.
Article in BMJ open, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
objectivesThis study aimed to understand influencing factors of health promotion behaviour in patients with aortic dissection (AD) using the capability, opportunity, motivation, behaviour (COM-B) model of behaviour.
designA descriptive qualitative design was adopted. Data were collected using face-to-face semi-structured interviews and analysed using directed content analysis.
settingFujian Medical University Union Hospital.
participantsA purposive sample of 16 patients with AD.
resultsThe following themes and subthemes were identified. Psychological capability: (1) lack of disease knowledge; physical capability: (1) physical function limitation; (2) fatigue; physical opportunity: (1) limited access to disease knowledge; (2) communication between providers and patients; (3) objective condition restriction; social opportunity: (1) stigma; (2) social support; reflective motivation: (1) self-efficacy; (2) perceived benefits; (3) personal and family responsibilities; automatic motivation: (1) post-traumatic growth; (2) fear of disease progression.
conclusionThis study adopted a novel approach to understanding factors affecting health promotion behaviour among patients with AD. Interventions can be implemented using the Behaviour Change Wheel framework and study findings to improve health promotion behaviour in this patient population.
