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

Objective: This study aims to explore the effects of attribution training on postoperative negative emotions, attributional styles, and knee joint function in elderly patients who have undergone total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Methods: A total of 76 elderly patients who underwent TKA were selected and randomly divided into an intervention group and a control group in this prospective randomized controlled study. All patients received routine postoperative care, while the intervention group also underwent eight sessions of attribution training intervention, each lasting 60 minutes. The Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA) and Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD), Attributional Style Questionnaire (ASQ) scores and Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) knee joint function scores between the two groups before and after the intervention were compared. Results: The study revealed that after the intervention, the intervention group exhibited lower scores on the HAMA and the HAMD compared to the control group, a difference that was statistically significant ( Conclusion: The results of the study indicate that attribution training can effectively enhance psychological resilience and rehabilitation adherence in elderly patients post-TKA, thereby promoting functional recovery of the knee joint. This suggests that attribution training can play a crucial role in optimizing postoperative care.
