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

objectiveThis study aimed to explore the effect of music-assisted progressive muscle relaxation on patients with locally advanced gastric cancer (LAGC) undergoing concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT).

methodsA retrospective study was conducted on the medical records of 124 patients with LAGC who received CCRT in Jiaozhou Central Hospital from December 2021 to November 2023. These patients were divided into the conventional care group (n = 65) and the music relaxation group (n = 59) on the basis of different nursing methods. Negative emotions (Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale [HADS]), sleep quality (Self-Rating Scale of Sleep [SRSS]), and quality of life (Quality-of-Life Questionnaire-Chinese Cancer Chemotherapy Patients) were compared between the two groups before and after treatment.

resultsAfter treatment, the HADS and SRSS scores of the music relaxation group were significantly lower than those of the conventional care group (P < 0.001), and the Quality-of-Life Questionnaire-Chinese Cancer Chemotherapy Patients scores of the music relaxation group were significantly higher than those of the conventional care group (P < 0.001).

conclusionMusic-assisted progressive muscle relaxation can improve the psychological state of patients with LAGC undergoing concurrent radiotherapy, promote sleep quality and help improve quality of life.
