Impact of Neuman model-guided stepped care on elderly gastric cancer patients' postop recovery.
Trial report in World journal of gastrointestinal surgery, 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
backgroundOwing to age-related physiological declines, elderly patients undergoing radical gastrectomy (RG) often experience physical and psychological challenges. Hence, appropriate nursing strategies need to be identified for optimizing patient outcomes.
aimTo evaluate the effects of the Neuman Systems Model-guided stepped care intervention (NGSC) model on postoperative physical and psychological recovery in elderly patients with gastric cancer who underwent RG.
methodsIn total, 80 elderly patients (≥ 65 years old) who underwent RG at the Shanxi Fenyang Hospital between January 2023 and June 2024 were included and randomly divided as follows: Control group (
resultsCompared with the control group, the observation group presented significantly shorter recovery times for first bowel sounds, ambulation, flatus, oral intake, catheter removal, and hospitalization (all
conclusionOverall, the findings of this study show that the proposed NGSC model accelerates postoperative recovery, alleviates psychological distress, improves quality of life, and reduces complications in elderly patients with gastric cancer who underwent RG, presenting potential for clinical application.
