The impact of diagnosis-related group-based medical insurance payment model on the prognosis and nursing care of patients undergoing composite trabeculectomy: a retrospective cohort study.
Review in Frontiers in public health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Background: The implementation of Diagnosis-Related Groups (DRG) in China's medical insurance payment system commenced in May 2019, with 30 pilot cities being selected, including Kunming City of Yunnan Province. As part of the nationwide reform of DRG medical insurance payment methods, hospitals are facing increased pressure to decrease average length of stay and improve efficiency within payment cap of different diseases. This study aims to investigate the influence of the DRG-based medical insurance payment reform on the prognosis and nursing care of patients undergoing composite trabeculectomy. Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted on 300 patients who underwent composite trabeculectomy in a Class A tertiary hospital in Yunnan Province between January 1, 2016, and December 31, 2022. Patients were divided into two groups: pre-DRG implementation (DRG group: January 1, 2016 - May 1, 2019) and post-DRG implementation (None-DRG group: May 1, 2019 - December 31, 2022). Data on hospital stay, visual acuity, intraocular pressure, visual field, and retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness were collected and analyzed. The relationship between the average length of hospital stay and nursing work patients with composite trabeculae was explored based on the prognostic effect. Results: The mean length of hospital stay for DRG group is approximately 8 days, compared to approximately 5 days for None-DRG group. The baseline characteristics of the two patient groups were found to be statistically similar ( Conclusion: This study represents the first empirical validation demonstrating that the implementation of the Diagnosis-Related Groups (DRG)-based medical insurance reform significantly reduced the mean length of hospital stay for patients undergoing compound trabeculectomy (from 8 days to 5 days). Notably, this reform did not exert a statistically significant impact on key prognostic indicators, including postoperative visual acuity and intraocular pressure (
