The impact of airway management guided by Protection Motivation Theory on the prevention and prognosis of post-stroke pneumonia.

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: Stroke remains a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide, with post-stroke pneumonia significantly impacting patient outcomes. Despite progress in stroke management, there was a lack of emphasis on targeted preventive measures for pneumonia. This study evaluates the impact of airway management guided by Protection Motivation Theory (PMT) on preventing post-stroke pneumonia. Methods: A retrospective study was conducted with 100 stroke patients admitted to the general neurology ward between January and December 2023. Patients were divided into two groups based on chronological admission order: 50 received standard airway management (January-June 2023), and 50 received PMT-guided intervention (July-December 2023). The PMT group engaged in structured educational sessions (30 min daily for 7 days) and actionable coping strategies to enhance adherence to airway management. Outcomes assessed included incidence of post-stroke pneumonia (diagnosed by chest CT within 7 days post-admission), respiratory function, length of hospital stay, and cognitive and psychological measures. Results: The PMT group showed a lower incidence of pneumonia (16% vs. 34%, Conclusion: PMT-guided airway management significantly enhances post-stroke outcomes through improved respiratory function, reduced pneumonia incidence, and better cognitive and psychological wellbeing. Future prospective studies with larger sample sizes are warranted to validate these findings.
