The effect of Plan Do Check Act cycle management mode on patients with severe pneumonia complicated with respiratory failure: A retrospective study.
Article in Pakistan journal of medical sciences, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Objective: To investigate the effects of Plan-Do-Check-Act (PDCA) cycle management nursing intervention on blood gas and biochemical indicators in patients with severe pneumonia complicated with respiratory failure (RF). Method: This retrospective cohort study was conducted at the Suzhou Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine Hospital and included records of 180 patients with severe pneumonia complicated with RF who were admitted for treatment between December 2022 to December 2024. Of them, 90 patients who received treatment based on the PDCA cycle management model (PDCA group) were matched in a 1:1 ratio with patients who received traditional nursing management (control group). Changes in blood gas, blood biochemistry, and self-care ability levels were compared between the two groups. Results: PDCA intervention was associated with significantly better levels of PaCO Conclusion: Compared to routine care, PDCA-based nursing interventions can more effectively improve blood gas levels in patients with severe pneumonia complicated by respiratory failure (RF), reduce the inflammatory response, and enhance self-care abilities.
