1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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: Chronic prostatitis is a common urological condition, often presenting with urinary irritation and chronic pelvic pain. These symptoms can negatively affect patients' daily life and treatment adherence, with some showing poor cooperation during therapy. Therefore, appropriate nursing guidance is essential to ensure treatment efficacy and support self-management. Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the impact of personalized nursing on treatment adherence and clinical symptoms in patients with prostatitis. Methods: Eighty-five prostatitis patients were enrolled and randomly separated into two groups. The control group ( Results: Following nursing intervention, both groups showed improvements across clinical and biochemical parameters. NIH-CPSI, SAS, and SDS scores declined significantly, while maximum and average urinary flow rates increased. Treatment adherence and health behavior competence were also enhanced in both groups. Notably, the observation group demonstrated greater improvements in all these outcomes, with lower symptom and psychological scores, higher urinary flow rates, better adherence and self-management, as well as more pronounced reductions in TNF- Conclusion: Personalized nursing improves treatment adherence, health behaviors, and quality of life in patients with prostatitis.
