Nursing care for patients with liver cirrhosis undergoing surgery for esophageal variceal bleeding in an integrated healthcare system.
Article in World journal of gastrointestinal surgery, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundGlobally, Liver cirrhosis is the 14th leading cause of death and poses a significant threat to human health.
aimTo investigate the effects of a multidisciplinary collaboration model on postoperative recovery and psychological stress in patients with liver cirrhosis undergoing esophageal variceal bleeding (EVB) surgery within an integrated healthcare system.
methodsBetween January 2022 and March 2024, a total of 180 patients with cirrhosis and EVB were admitted and randomly assigned to either a control group (standard care) or an observation group (standard care plus the multidisciplinary collaboration model), with 90 patients in each group. Postoperative recovery indicators (time to symptom improvement, time to start eating, time to bowel sound recovery, time to first flatus, and hospital stay), psychological stress responses [self-rating anxiety scale (SAS); self-rating depression scale (SDS)], subjective well-being, and incidence of complications were compared between the two groups.
resultsCompared to the control group, the observation group showed earlier symptom improvement, earlier return to eating, bowel sound recovery, first flatus, and a shorter hospital stay. Pre-intervention SAS and SDS scores were not significantly different between the groups, but post-intervention scores were significantly lower in the observation group. Similarly, there was no significant difference in the subjective well-being scores before the intervention between the two groups. After the intervention, both groups showed improved scores, with the observation group scoring significantly higher than the control group.
conclusionThe observation group also had a lower incidence of complications. Therefore, for patients with liver cirrhosis undergoing EVB surgery, a multidisciplinary collaboration model within an integrated healthcare system can promote early postoperative recovery, reduces psychological stress, improves subjective well-being, and reduces complications and rebleeding.
