Effect of comfort care combined with family participatory care during the perioperative period of cesarean section in obstetrics and gynecology.
Trial report in Family practice, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
objectiveTo explore the effects of comfort care and family participatory care during the perioperative period of cesarean section in obstetrics and gynecology.
methodsThis single-center, randomized controlled trial assigned 90 cesarean women to two groups: control (conventional perioperative care) and observation (comfort and family participatory care). The primary outcome measures included maternal pain [Visual Analog Scale (VAS)], anxiety [Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS)], and depression [Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS)]. Secondary outcomes included mean arterial pressure and heart rate, adrenaline and cortisol levels, lactation onset time, 24-h postpartum lactation volume, off-bed activity time, anal defecation time, and hospital stay, as well as evaluating maternal self-care ability [Exercise of Self-Care Agency Scale (ESCA)], maternal complications, and maternal satisfaction with nursing assessed using a satisfaction questionnaire at discharge.
resultsThe observation group possessed lower VAS at 24, 48, and 72 h postoperatively, and SAS and SDS scores postoperatively, lower mean arterial pressure, heart rate, and adrenaline and cortisol levels, higher scores of self-care skills, self-care responsibility, self-concept, and self-care health knowledge, shorter times to lactation onset, off-bed activity, anal defecation, and hospital stay, greater 24-h postpartum lactation volume, lower incidence rate of complications (4.44% vs 24.44%), and higher nursing satisfaction (97.78% vs 84.22%) compared with the control group (all P < 0.05).
conclusionDuring the perioperative period of cesarean section, comfort care and family participatory care can effectively alleviate postoperative pain, reduce anxiety and depression, improve stress responses, enhance maternal self-care ability and nursing satisfaction, and decrease the incidence of complications.
