Fast-track rehabilitation plus humanized nursing improves gastrointestinal function and quality of life in post-surgical gastric cancer patients.

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
backgroundPostoperative complications (POCs) can arise in patients who underwent surgery for gastric cancer (GC). Effective nursing may help in minimizing these negative outcomes.
aimTo elucidate the influence of fast-track rehabilitation (FTR) plus humanized nursing on gastrointestinal (GI) function and quality of life (QOL) of patients who underwent GC surgery.
methodsThe study participants were 102 patients admitted between December 2018 and December 2020 for GC surgery, of which 52 and 50 patients who received FTR + humanized nursing (research group) and routine nursing (control group), respectively. GI function, QOL, POCs (abdominal distension, infection, GI bleeding, anastomotic leakage, and deep vein thrombosis) and nursing satisfaction were compared between the two groups.
resultsCompared with the control group, the research group had better GI function, which was mainly manifested by earlier food intake, shorter bowel sound recovery time, short time to first postoperative anal exhaustion and defecation, and shorter length of stay. Besides, the research group exhibited better QOL, lower overall POC rate, and higher nursing satisfaction than the control group.
conclusionFTR + humanized nursing not only improve the GI function and QOL of patients undergoing GC surgery but also reduce the incidence of POCs and improve nursing satisfaction. Thus, this intervention deserves popularization in clinical practice.
