The impact of staged rehabilitation guidance based on symptom management theory on functional rehabilitation and quality of life of elderly patients undergoing hip replacement surgery.

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
Objective: Physical rehabilitation after hip arthroplasty (HA) is crucial for improving patients' functional outcomes and quality of life (QOL). This study aimed to explore the impact of staged rehabilitation guidance based on symptom management theory (SMT) on functional rehabilitation and QOL in elderly patients undergoing HA. Methods: This retrospective case-control analysis included a cohort of 60 patients who received SMT-based staged rehabilitation guidance between January 2023 to April 2024 at The Affiliated Yangming Hospital of Ningbo University. Patients of the SMT group were matched 1:1 with patients who received routine care (the control group). The recovery of hip joint function, motor function, QOL, and self-care ability after intervention was compared. Results: After four and 12 weeks of intervention, the Harris hip score (HHS), functional independence measure (FIM) score, 6-minute walk test (6MWT), Berg balance scale (BBS) score, QLQ-C30, and Barthel index (BI) score of the SMT group were significantly higher, while the standing to walking time was significantly lower than that of the control group (P<0.05). Conclusions: The staged rehabilitation guidance based on SMT principles has potentially positive effects on the hip joint function, motor function, QOL, and self-care ability of elderly patients undergoing HA.
