Effectiveness of Nursing Care Intervention for Patients With Pulmonary Tuberculosis: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.
Synthesis in Nursing open, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
aimThis review aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of nursing care interventions on various clinical outcomes in patients with pulmonary TB.
designSystematic review and meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials and observational studies.
methodsDatabases searched included PubMed, Cochrane Library and Web of Science, up to June 2023. Studies were included if they evaluated nursing care interventions for pulmonary TB patients and reported on the specified outcomes. Data were extracted and analysed using a random-effects model, and heterogeneity was assessed using Cochran's Q test and I
resultsSixteen studies were included. Nursing care interventions significantly improved compliance to TB medications (OR = 3.601, 95% CI: 2.366-5.481) and psychological function (SMD = 2.080, 95% CI: 0.502-3.658). Social function and satisfaction also showed significant improvements (SMD = 2.649, 95% CI: 1.496-3.802; OR = 4.943, 95% CI: 2.265-10.786). There was a notable reduction in anxiety (SMD = -2.728, 95% CI: -4.354 to -1.102) and depression (SMD = -1.389, 95% CI: -2.706 to -0.072). Negative sputum conversion rates were higher in the intervention group (OR = 4.943, 95% CI: 2.265-10.786), and the incidence of adverse drug reactions was lower (OR = 0.259, 95% CI: 0.099-0.680).
