The Effects of Nursing Care Based on Watson's Theory on Self-Care Ability in Patients with Congestive Heart Failure.

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: Patients with Congestive Heart Failure (CHF) require continuous self-care to manage potential complications and adverse effects of the disease. This study aims to evaluate the impact of Watson's care model on the self-care ability of these patients. Materials and Methods: This clinical trial was conducted between November 2021 and July 2022 on 72 patients with CHF at a cardiovascular research hospital in Esfahan, Iran. Participants were randomly assigned to either the intervention or control group. The intervention group received care based on Watson's theory, which included audio recordings to reduce anxiety and enhance hope, individualized sessions to improve knowledge about the disease and its complications, and a 3-month telephone follow-up. Both groups completed a self-care ability questionnaire before, immediately after, and 3 months after intervention. Data were analyzed using statistical tests, including analysis of variance, Kolmogorov-Smirnov, analysis of covariance, and paired Results: The findings demonstrated a significant difference in the total self-care ability scores within the intervention group before, immediately after, and 3 months following the intervention ( Conclusions: The study suggests that a care program based on Watson's theory is an effective and cost-efficient approach to enhancing self-care ability in patients with CHF.
