Exploring the interplay of stigma, family care, and discharge readiness in patients with malignant obstructive jaundice undergoing percutaneous transhepatic cholangial drainage recovery.
Article in BMC psychology, 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
objectiveTo investigate the current status of stigma, family care, and discharge readiness in patients with malignant obstructive jaundice undergoing percutaneous transhepatic cholangial drainage (PTCD) and analyze its influencing factors.
methodsA cross-sectional survey was conducted on 399 patients with malignant obstructive jaundice who underwent PTCD using a general information questionnaire, the readiness for hospital discharge scale (RHDS), the social impact scale (SIS), and the family APGAR index.
resultsThe total average stigma score in patients with malignant obstructive jaundice who underwent PTCD was 59.1 ± 10.34, and the average scores of each dimension, from low to high, were: social exclusion, economic discrimination, intrinsic stigma, and social isolation. The overall average score of discharge readiness was 61.08 ± 17.94, and the average scores of each dimension from low to high were personal status, adaptability, and predictive support. The total score of the family care scale was 5.00 (4.00, 7.00). Patients with malignant obstructive jaundice undergoing PTCD had a negative correlation between their sense of stigma and discharge readiness, r = -0.748 (P < 0.01). There was a positive correlation between family care and discharge readiness, r = 0.904 (P < 0.01), and a negative correlation between sense of stigma and family care, r = -0.854 (P < 0.01). The results of multiple linear regression analysis showed that age, lifestyle, PTCD time, and hospitalization interval were all correlated with patients' sense of stigma, family care, and discharge readiness (P < 0.05).
conclusionsPatients with malignant obstructive jaundice who underwent PTCD had a moderate level of stigma, family care, and discharge readiness. There were pairwise correlations among family care, discharge readiness, and sense of stigma. Clinical medical staff should attach importance to the quality of discharge guidance and the importance of family support, help patients establish good social support systems, and promote the safety management of patients after discharge.
