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: This study aims to help women recover their gastrointestinal function after a cesarean delivery. We will use a nurse-led, evidence-based approach and evaluate how well it works in a clinical setting. Methods: Using the continuous quality improvement model, evidence was translated into clinical quality audit indicators to develop interventions. These interventions compared the implementation of evidence-based practices before (August - December 2023) and after (March - July 2024) enhancing medical staff's knowledge. The aim was to improve the execution rate of indicators related to gastrointestinal function recovery. Key variables analyzed included perioperative fasting duration, pain (VAS), anxiety (GAD-7), time to first flatus, and incidences of thirst, hunger, nausea/vomiting, and abdominal distension. Results: The study incorporated sixteen pieces of evidence and established eighteen review criteria. A comparative analysis conducted before and after the implementation of evidence-based practice revealed a significant increase in the evidence-based assessment score for healthcare professionals regarding the promotion of post-caesarean gastrointestinal function recovery, with scores rising from 57.84 ± 7.50 to 90.00 ± 7.07 points (P < 0.01). Additionally, the execution rate of all eighteen review criteria showed significant improvement (P < 0.05). The time to first anal exhaust was reduced from 32.19 ± 20.48 hours to 20.25 ± 8.14 hours (P < 0.01). Furthermore, the incidence of thirst decreased from 56.41% to 23.81% (χ Conclusion: The implementation of nurse-led, multidisciplinary evidence-based practice effectively facilitates gastrointestinal recovery and improves postoperative comfort and satisfaction among women following elective caesarean section.
