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
purposeThis meta-analysis evaluates the effectiveness of nurse-led interventions in improving quality of life (QoL), mental health, sexual function, marital satisfaction, postoperative recovery, and symptom distress in gynecological cancer patients.
methodsA systematic search of PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, and PsycINFO identified randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and quasi-experimental studies. A random-effects meta-analysis was conducted, assessing heterogeneity (I
resultsTen RCTs (1,574 participants) showed nurse-led interventions significantly reduced anxiety (d = 0.85-1.29), depression (d = 1.29), and improved QoL (d = 0.42-1.29). Sexual rehabilitation programs enhanced sexual function (d = 0.95) and marital satisfaction (d = 0.65-0.80). Postoperative nursing interventions lowered infection rates (OR = 7.82) and improved recovery. cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT)-based interventions, when adapted for delivery by trained nurses, had the strongest psychological benefits, while structured postoperative care optimized recovery. Heterogeneity was moderate to high (I
conclusionNurse-led interventions effectively improve mental health, QoL, sexual function, and recovery in gynecological cancer patients, offering a cost-effective, accessible alternative to physician-led care. Future research should standardize protocols, conduct multicenter trials, and assess long-term impacts.
