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

backgroundLimited research has been conducted on the psychological factors experienced by patients before surgery. This study examined the effects of preoperative stress, depression, social support, and self-compassion on the resilience of surgical patients.

methodsUsing convenience sampling, 150 patients admitted for surgery at Nasaret International and Seoul Barun Chuckdo Hospitals in I City, South Korea were included in the study. Data was collected from July 1-31, 2022. Using SPSS WIN 26.0, the data was analyzed using descriptive statistics, a t-test, ANOVA, Scheffé's test, Pearson's correlation coefficient, and multiple regression.

resultsResilience exhibited a statistically significant negative correlation with surgical stress and depression, and a significant positive correlation with social support. Surgical stress, depression, and obstetrics and gynecological surgery had statistically significant negative effects on resilience, while education level and economic status had positive effects.

conclusionEnhancing resilience in surgical patients requires the development of tailored interventions to mitigate surgical stress and depression, which are patient-centered and account for educational and economic status, particularly in obstetric and gynecological surgery.
