Evaluating the role of nursing interventions in enhanced recovery after surgery for minimally invasive spine surgery: a retrospective analysis.
Article in Frontiers in surgery, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Background: Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocols have revolutionized postoperative care, particularly in minimally invasive spine surgery (MISS). This study aims to evaluate the role of nursing interventions in improving patient outcomes and reducing healthcare costs within this framework. Methods: This retrospective cohort study evaluated 150 patients undergoing MISS at The First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine from January 2017 to December 2021. Of these, 75 were assigned to the conventional group and 75 to the ERAS group. The study compared conventional nursing care with the ERAS protocol, assessing clinical outcomes and hospital expenses. Results: The analysis revealed that implementing targeted nursing interventions significantly decreased the length of hospital stay (LOS) in the ERAS group compared to the conventional group (3.2 days vs. 4 days; Conclusion: The implementation of targeted nursing interventions within the ERAS protocol significantly improves patient outcomes in MISS. The ERAS group demonstrated shorter hospital stays, reduced postoperative drainage, and lower opioid requirements compared to the conventional care group. Additionally, the cost-effectiveness of the ERAS protocol highlights its potential to enhance overall healthcare efficiency.
